Professional Inspirations #19: A word for the Workaholic

Psa 25:4-5 Make your ways known to me, O LORD, and teach me your paths. (5) Lead me in your truth and teach me because you are God, my savior. I wait all day long for you.

PSALM 127: A WORD FOR THE WORKAHOLIC

Psa 127:2 It is useless to work hard for the food you eat by getting up early and going to bed late. The LORD gives food to those he loves while they sleep.

I had selected both the above Psalm 127: 2 and Mat 6:33, only to find them contained / referenced to in the undermentioned link. This is really really a good view to read....Please do. http://bible.org/seriespage/psalm-127-word-workaholics

The last paragraph of the conclusion drawn by Bob Deffinbaugh

"Finally, this Psalm (127) contains a principle which relates to those who may never have come to a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. No matter how much you labor to earn a righteousness which you hope God will accept, your efforts will always be futile. Your works will never be acceptable to God. God has chosen to save men by His grace, not by their works. To be saved you must recognize yourself as a sinner, and your efforts to be righteous apart from God are worthless. You can be saved simply by resting in Him. He has sent His Son to be punished for your sins on Calvary. Jesus Christ is the One whose righteousness can be yours, simply by trusting in Him and receiving salvation as God’s gift of grace. In Him alone you will find the security which God gives for eternity."

Lord Father, in Jesus name, please awaken the Holy Spirit is us, command Him to talk to us, Command Him to awaken our Spiritual discernment in all we hear, do, intend and plan to do. Amen & Amen

Mat 6:33 But first, be concerned about his kingdom and what has his approval. Then all these things will be provided for you.
