Beautiful Feet

Saturday 11 November
READ: Isa. 52: 7   
MORE LESSON: Mal. 3:18

God will do exceptional things for those that work for Him that He will not do for anyone else. God is not partial and He is not a respecter of persons but it is also important to know that every person doesn't carry equal weight with God. There are those that, by the reason of dedication of their lives to serving God, have a special slot with Him. 

When a man is dedicated to soul winning; either by his effort, life or resources, God has a special place for such a person. One of the ways you can sign up to become one of God's favourite is to dedicate your life, energy and resources towards winning souls for Him and expanding His kingdom. Isa. 52:7 says, How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth! God is committed to beautifying, not just the feet, but the entire life of those that are committed to advancing the gospel.

The Bible says, The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise: Prov. 11:30.  There is so much wisdom in dedicating your life to publishing the gospel because it is the surest way of securing your life. For example, a man that dedicates a great part of his income to sponsoring the advancement of the Kingdom can be sure of Prov 11:30 being fulfilled in his life,  that no matter how sour the economy turns, he will never lose his source of income. This is because God's kingdom will suffer a loss if such a man loses; and God's kingdom can never lose, so the man must always increase.

When you are committed to the gospel, you enjoy divine immunity. In this generation where God is looking for men that will serve Him and everyone is busy pursuing his own agenda, when you make yourself available for Him, He will rather a whole nation be destroyed than your life be touched. This is why the gospel is part of the armour of the believer, And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace: Eph. 6:15. It secures your feet so that you cannot be removed.

It is time for you to dedicate your life to advancing the gospel because God has vowed to make a demarcation between those that serve Him and those that don't (Mal. 3: 18). Do not be deceived by those preaching vain grace; if God has to choose between doing something for one who works for Him and the one who just takes His grace and does nothing for the Kingdom, He will choose the one who works for Him. If He needs to secure the life of one that is committed to Him at the expense of one that is not, He will not hesitate.
Service is a key to divine blessings, go serve God now in any capacity.
