Are you building in vain? Are you
putting much effort and seeing little or no result? This is not God’s plan for
you, His plan is that you prosper in the works of your hands (Deuteronomy 28:8).
This post gives the wisdom to apply to stop laboring in vain.
Unless the LORD builds the house,
they labor in vain who build it; unless the LORD guards the city, the watchman
stays awake in vain – Psalms 127:1 (NKJV).
Trust in the LORD with all your
heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge
Him, and He shall direct your paths – Proverbs 3:5-6 (NKJV).
Many Christians are putting in
much energy, time and money to their endeavor, only to reap below their
expectation. This leads to frustration in life. However, there are some
Christians who put in less energy, time and money and yet reap beyond their
imagination. The difference is the personality that is the main builder.
The scriptures in Psalm 127:1
says that except the Lord builds a house, those working on it will only labour
in vain; and if the Lord does not watch over a city, the watchman will only be
awake in vain. It is therefore wisdom to make the Lord the main builder.
Let God be the builder and you
the labourer. God is the Alpha and the Omega (Revelations 1:8), the only wise
God (1 Timothy 1:17) and the creator of the whole universe (Genesis 1:1);
therefore, He is the best personality to be at the head of your affairs. It is
wisdom to allow God to pave the way, set the pace and direct you in your endeavor.
God can never make mistakes and no force can stand or stop Him; also, nothing
is difficult for Him (Jeremiah 32:27). So, your duty is to follow Him and work
as instructed by Him. Read more...
