Scripture: 1 Corinthians 3:10-23
Song: “To The Work”
When men aren’t mindful of spiritual things, they quickly forget in their daily affairs that they’re dealing with God’s things and not their own. Paul reminds us of that in this text.
God’s workers are God’s workers. The workers in this context are the apostles. And if men were mistaken in picking favorites among the apostles how much more do they err when they pick favorites among lesser servants. “Neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but God who causes the growth.” Let God be glorified if we’re to glory in His servants.
God’s temple is God’s temple. Oh, that men would understand this before they do harm to the church. To despise the church of God, to threaten its peace and unity is to do more than to despise its people. It is to despise the Lord who purchased it with the blood of His only Son. “If any man destroys the temple of God, God will destroy him.”
God’s field is God’s field. When you go to work today, you’re not working for your boss. When you go to school, you’re not working for you’re teacher. In whatever arena you find yourself today, you work for the Lord. “You are God’s field, God’s building.” What will you build Him today?
Remember as you manage your relationship with God’s workers, God’s people, and God’s time that you’re a steward of the precious things of God.
