Apostle Grace Lubega
Luke 9:62(KJV); And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.
In this Christian walk, I have seen people bend under the pressure of ministry that has caused them to give up and abandon the cause of the gospel, feeling betrayed by the things they once gave their hearts to.
They look back at the lives they once lived and prefer them to the obligations of service and the demands for selflessness required from any soldier of the kingdom.
The Bible is very clear in its opinion of such Christians. Our theme scripture reveals that “they are not fit for the kingdom of God.”
Think about it.
When you quit from the noble work of the Kingdom, heaven weighs you and finds you unworthy and unfit for divine assignment.
You must treat Kingdom service with the respect it deserves. It is not the kind of duty that you drift in and out of at your own convenience.
Keep your hand on the plough, serve with diligence and excellence. No matter how rough the seas of life may become, never allow yourself to be disillusioned out of service to God.
You are a soldier, serve with the fortitude of one whose allegiance is not merely to men but it is to the Most High God.
His name be praised!

GOLDEN NUGGET: You must treat Kingdom service with the respect it deserves. You are a soldier, serve with the fortitude of one whose allegiance is not merely to men but it is to the Most High God.
PRAYER: Father, I thank You for this Word. My heart is given to the service of the Kingdom and it is with diligence and excellence that I serve. I never draw back because my heart is sold out to this great cause.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
军人的心
使徒卢贝加
★路加福音 9:62(RCU17SS)耶稣对他说:“手扶着犁向后看的人,不配进 神的国。”
在这基督徒的行走中,我看到人们在事奉的压力下弯腰,这使他们放弃并放弃福音的事业,感到被他们曾经献身的东西所背叛。
他们回首过去的生活,更喜欢他们。他们宁愿过上自己的旧生活,也不愿接受神的国士兵们要求的责任和无私。
圣经对这些基督徒的看法非常清楚。我们的主题经文揭示,“他们不适合神的国。”
想想吧。
当你放弃国度的崇高工作时,上天会权衡你,发现你不配也不适合神圣的任务。
你必须以应有的尊重对待国度的服侍。这不是你在方便的时候随意进出的那种责任。
别把你的手从犁上移开,勤勉尽责,精益求精。不管生活的海洋变得多么的波涛汹涌,永远不要让自己受骗而不去服侍神。
你是一个军人,要有一个不仅效忠于人类,而且效忠于至高无上的上帝的人的坚毅。
他的名字值得称赞!
