Being Ready to Do the Lord’s Work

Scripture Numbers 8: [11] Aaron is to present the Levites before the LORD as a wave offering from the Israelites, so that they may be ready to do the work of the LORD.

Observation: What am I waiting for to do the work of the Lord? It’s not that He has nothing for me to do, otherwise why would I be here. I know God doesn’t make mistakes and He wouldn’t make anything that didn’t have some use so why am I not doing the work of the Lord. He has given me everything I need to do His work a testimony, wisdom, His word and most importantly the Holy Spirit. So why am I busier doing what I want to do instead of doing what I was created to do.

Application: I know what I need to do and I know what I shouldn’t be doing. God has given me instruction and a job to do here on earth so I will be better prepared to do it when I’m with Him. I need to be much more disciplined each day and rid myself of this laziness and get busy doing the work the Lord has put before me.

Prayer: My Lord I need you, please give me the discipline to do what you call me to do. Open doors for me to follow your leading in my life. Help me to be more disciplined in taking care of this body so that I will have the energy needed to do the work you call me to do. May I honor you with this life and be ready to work when I get home to You.
