Seven Great Blessings and a Golden Key - Part 4

Blessing No [3]: Employment or Missions

Lord God created the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to cultivate and protect. Man was accountable for the life in the Garden till he was deceived. The presence of evil can disturb the peace and destroy the beauty of the life in Eden. God expected productivity out of responsibility from the life of man. There is no authority without responsibility. The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet, provided you remain faithful to God.

From the story of talents spoken by Jesus we see God entrusts His possessions and He gives us the image, authority and power expecting productivity from us. Our life and time are resources given to us. The one who received five talents went and worked hard and produced five more talents. And he received praises and rewards from His Master. But the guy who received one talent dug a hole in the ground and brought it back without productivity to the Master and got cursed badly. God blessed the man He created by saying "be fruitful and multiply". If you are lazy and produces nothing you will never bring joy in the Heart of your Master. To enlarge your territory let your authority produce productivity out of accountability. Give God a chance to bless the work of your hand. If you are faithful with the few things you got, Lord will put you in charge of many things. Unfaithfulness leads to fruitlessness.

Adam failed to protect Himself and his wife in the Garden from the evil one. He didn’t stay submitted to God; he didn’t discern the words of Eve and he didn't resist the devil. So man made himself flee from the great blessings. As a result two bellies and the unproductive ground got cursed. Adam loved his wife and he listened to her and pleased her more than God. Adam lost his job because of unaccountability. God rewarded Adam according to what he has done and appointed cherubim with flaming sword to guard the way to the tree of life in the Eden.

All over the world people are trying to equip their children to get the best possible employment in this world. But here the resurrected Jesus gave every born-again child of God an appointment letter for joining the great commission. All authority has been given to Me in Heaven and Earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations. Later He said "behold I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to give every man according to what he has done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end". God has blessed you with a Mission even if others are fruitless, do the very best you can. Remain faithful and make the Lord rejoice in what you produce from your life and Mission. Be blessed on earth and receive a glorious reward in Eternity. Amen…VJ Traven
