Believers Must Be Committed To God’s Service
The scripture commended the courageous Jews who were determined to return from Babylon to Israel, their homeland for the purpose of repairing God’s temple. The patriotic Jews left Babylon to successfully repair God’s temple in Jerusalem as proposed. They, also, offered acceptable sacrifices to God after the completion of their works. The scripture reported their efforts;
“The children of those who had been carried away captive, who had come from the captivity, offered burnt offerings to the God of Israel: twelve bulls for all Israel, ninety-six rams, seventy-seven lambs, and twelve male goats as a sin offering.
All this was a burnt offering to the Lord. And they delivered the king’s orders to the king’s satraps and the governors in the region beyond the River. So they gave support to the people and the house of God” (Ezra 8:35-36).
Full Commitment To God Ensures Benefits From God
People who are committed to God will not be ashamed under whatever circumstance. They will be rewarded for their commitment. God will reciprocate the goodness of their resources used for him. Jehovah will ensure that none of their efforts will be unrewarded. People who make God happy with a heart of servitude will not suffer shame, but their faces will radiate God’s glory from time to time. Their light will shine into the end of days.
Therefore, anyone who has committed himself or herself to a good course of serving God should keep up the practice; he/she will earn much benefit in return in due time. Also, a person who has not made a choice to serve God with full commitment should improve his/her practice so that he can earn much benefit from his Creator. Are you fully committed to God?
Are you fully committed to God? God loves us and is fully committed to us. He watches over us and wants us to make Him a huge part of our life. Do you think you can do this? Of course, just ask him to direct you and he will..
