EPISODE 196 – ARE YOU GOD’S PARTNER
Apostle Bennie
Monday 7th August, 2023
ARE YOU GOD’S PARTNER?
“For we are partners working together for God, and you are God’s field. You are also God’s building” 1 Corinthians 3:9 (GNT)
It is a beautiful and glorious thing to be saved.
However, there is another great thing that you should experience in your new life in Christ. Which is to PARTNER WITH GOD.
To Partner with God, is to work together with God for the fulfillment of His eternal purpose.
God didn’t just get you saved for you to live your own ambition. He gave you His life and brought you into His family so that He can partner with you to achieve His eternal purpose.
To partner with God to achieve His eternal purpose is not automatic. You can be born again and not directly be involved in His work. There are times people think, they become partners or co-labourers with God the moment they become born again.
To be a partner with God requires an intentional decision. You have to be intentional about being involved in God’s work.
You have to come to the place where you esteem the vision of God above your own personal interest.
Look at the testimony of Paul concerning Timothy :
” But I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you soon, so that I may also be encouraged by learning news about you. For I have no one else [like him who is] so kindred a spirit who will be genuinely concerned for your [spiritual] welfare. For the others [who deserted me after my arrest] all seek [to advance] their own interests, not those of Jesus Christ. But you know of Timothy’s tested worth and his proven character, that he has served with me to advance the gospel like a son serving with his father. Therefore, I hope [that it is His will] to send him immediately, just as soon as I see how my case turns out; and I trust [confidently] in the Lord that soon I also will be coming to you.” Philippians 2:19-24 (Amplified Bible).
Even in the first century Church there were people who pursued the advancement of their own interest and not the things of Christ. However, Timothy, served with Paul to advance the gospel. This is his tested worth and proven character as a son to Paul.
Timothy and Paul intentionally made it their interest to work with God. It was not automatic that they made the things of our Lord Jesus their genuine interest and passion. They have to make a personal decision to be about the business of the Lord.
The Lord doesn’t just work with you. You have to first make a decision to step out there to do His work. Our Father doesn’t force Himself on you, He works with you as you decide to make His work your priority.
“And they went out and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the word through the accompanying signs. Amen.” Mark 16:20 (NKJV)
Oh Hallelujah.
1. They went out and preached everywhere. They decided to go out there to do the things of our Lord Jesus Christ.
2. Then the Lord worked with them.
Our Lord wouldn’t force Himself on you to work with you, just because you are born again. He will stir up those desires in your heart to partner with you. However, the Lord will partner with you as long as you are willing to partner with Him to advance His course.
ARE YOU A PARTNER WITH GOD?
