Ephesians 4:28 (KJV): “Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.”
Many people think working is just about making money so they can take care of themselves. But that’s not God’s full picture.
According to our theme scripture, God wants us to work so that we can be a blessing to others.
Godly labour is not selfish.
It’s not about acquiring material possessions or just chasing wealth. It’s about doing something good with your hands so that you can be an answer to someone else’s prayer.
Think about it like this: When you give someone food, pay someone’s school fees, or help a friend who’s struggling, it’s not just kindness, it’s the fruit of godly labour.
So don’t just dream of a big career or a successful business just for you. Dream of a life that touches others. Ask yourself: “What can I do with my skills, my job, or my business to help someone else?”
Start building a lifestyle where giving and making a difference in someone’s life is a mindset.
