Therefore, As We Have Opportunity, Let Us Do Good To All People

Alan Terry • 21 September 2023

Jesus Is The Way

GALATIANS 6:9-10
“And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart. Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all, especially to those who are of the household of faith.
”‭‭Galatians‬ ‭6:9-10‬ ‭NKJV‬

It is easy to lose heart when you continually help someone day in, day out, without any tangible results or even a word of thanks. But Paul challenges us just as he challenged the Galatians, to keep doing good and trust God for the results. In due time, we will reap that of which we sow, a harvest of blessings!
Psalm 37:3-4 tells us: Trust in the Lord, and do good;
Dwell in the land, and feed of His faithfulness.
Delight yourself also in the Lord,
And He shall give you the desires of your heart.
This is the perfect example of Christ way of life, to trust God with all your troubles, and to feed of His faithfulness; filing you with joy in the Lord because you believe in His faithfulness to send the help and provision you need. Then, regardless to your own troubles, you are free to help others according to God’s will.
While you reach out to help someone struggling, He will send the help you need and plant in our hearts godly desires that will bring true happiness, joy, and peace into our daily lives.
When we all follow this basic instruction, we all start to reach out to each other, receiving the help we need as we give to others. As a result, we become bonded together in wonderful friendships fuelled by the love of Christ and in appreciation of each other’s help.
God’s way works!!!
Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers.
My brethren, we believers need to be seen as different; kind and loving toward all; that is shining for Christ. Not just some of the time, but all of the time; even when we are persecuted or struggling in our own troubles. We believers are gifted with spiritual gifts that we are to use to edify and encourage one another (1 CORINTHIANS 12).
Now is the time to ask God to reveal them to us and teach us to operate in them; it is time to get serious with God and serve Him by following the leadership of the Holy Spirit.
It is walking in the Spirit that produces good fruits (GALATIANS 5:16-26); it is the fruits of the Spirit that will attract others to Christ and that includes your loved ones, your work colleagues, and people that come your way.
Jesus way works; He said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.”
‭‭John‬ ‭14:6‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
There is no other way; no other person, object, or god who can bring salvation.
Jesus is the only way to lasting peace, joy, and eternal life; He is the only way to our Father in heaven.
All glory to God forever and ever! Amen.
