Being Prepared for Service

Scripture: Ephesians 4: [12] to prepare God’s people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up

Observation: I’m one of God’s people. What a privilege that is. Reading, praying and going to church is preparing me for service. My purpose is to serve to build up the church, the body of Christ.

Application: I need to be more aggressive in my service to the church. I also need to be prepared to know what to do. I should take more classes at church, read more, get involved more and outline how God wants me to serve him by serving my church.

Prayer: My Lord, you have blessed me with gifts and abilities. May I use them each day to please you and build up your church.
