TOPIC : HEAVEN'S BURDEN BEARERS
TEXT : 2 TIMOTHY 4 : 10 - 11
10 For Demas hath forsaken me, having loved this present world, and is departed unto Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia, Titus unto Dalmatia.
11 Only Luke is with me. Take Mark, and bring him with thee: for he is profitable to me for the ministry.
These were the words of apostle Paul at a very difficult time in his ministerial life.
He said, " Demas has forsaken me" meaning that Demas has deserted him.
He said that Demas deserted him for the love of this present world and it's vanishing nature.
But in verse ten apostle paul said, but Luke alone is with me. Get Mark and bring him with you for he is very profitable in ministry.
ARE YOU A BURDEN OR ARE YOU A BURDEN BEARER?
ARE YOU PROFITABLE OR PROBLEMATIC.
WOULD YOUR PASTOR BE ABLE TO SAY, THIS ONE IS PROFITABLE FOR ME, FOR MINISTRY.
If you are not lifting his burden, you are adding to his burden.
Remember, every child of God is called to be a burden lifter to his pastor.
If you are doing nothing to help your pastor, you are doing nothing to help God.
How does your pastor feel when he remembers you?
Does he feel pleasured or pained?
It's not too late to change.
When you start to bear kingdom burdens, the list of your problems goes on a reduction mode.
Beloved , diligently begin to search until you locate your area for service for the resurrected Jesus.
God bless you.
With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.
Your case is not
bigger than God.
May you have a God filled day in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
Your Victory is already guaranteed
It is well, do not give up, with God all things are possible
(Please be a blessing to seven persons by sending to them devotionals)
