Matthew
22:21 They
said, "Caesar's." Then he said to them, "Render therefore to
Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are
God's."
When some one helps us, we
often say, ‘I owe you one’ with the intention of helping them when
they may need it later. In the same way we also try to support those that
support us and in that way we help them with what they are doing. The sad part
though is so often when a person really needs our help and support we wait for
someone else to do it and when they crumble under the pressure. We come and
share our condolences with them saying, ‘all you had to do was
ask’.
The reality is that Jesus
is the One that is asking for help, your help, not your neighbour, not your church but you to help Him. Will you? He needs you to
be active and mobilised as a Christian for Him, not thinking of your own
selfish needs, but to think of the needs of others. He has helped you, yet you
remain selfish and will not share His help with others. Now there are many of
you who will say that this is not true of themselves,
and this may be the case, but there are still many who this is true of. They
pray for harvest but never give of it to others with less than they, the pray
for more money yet never tithe. They want to be blessed but never think of just
blessing another. Without your help how do you think His ministries to others
will continue?
Be encouraged today to be
willing and available to help Jesus, He needs you.
David
Point to ponder: Jesus needs you.
Question to
consider: Do you make your resources available for Jesus?
