ARE YOU READY FOR DOUBLE BLESSINGS?

 Are You Ready for Double Blessings? 

“Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine.” 1 Timothy 5:17 (KJV)

The Most High God, being the greatest leader in the universe, continually raises leaders to lead families, communities, towns, and nations. He also raises leaders in His Kingdom, especially the church, to train and equip members for soul winning and nurturing for Jesus Christ (Ephesians 4:11-12). The opening scripture is a typical example that shows that the Lord Jesus Christ is still the head of the church, and He raises elders and leaders to run His church on earth. Dear beloved, are you a leader in your church? Being a leader in the church is not an easy task but it has great rewards when you do it well. Those who devote their time and other resources to ensure the progress of the church are counted worthy of double honor. This presupposes that they are given double blessings or rewards (Isaiah 61:7). Beloved, this should motivate you to do your work very well if you are in a leadership position in the church. On the other hand, if you are not a leader you should start thinking of making yourself available for God to develop, train, and mentor you to be His leader, which He can trust and use in the furtherance of His work. Whether you are a leader in church or in any part of the world, what God requires from you is to fear Him and be faithful till the end, and you will never lose your reward (Matthew 25:21–23). Hallelujah! God bless you!

Prayer Point: My faithful and glorious Father, thank You for Your inspiring Word. I avail myself to you. Please train and mentor me to be Your kind of leader; one that You can trust and commit tasks to. I promise to be faithful and do it with all my might till the end. Please let me never go back on my promise even in difficult times, in Jesus’ name. Amen!
