More Than Church Work – A Heart Aligned With God

Scripture:

“For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.” – Romans 10:2-3 (KJV)

Devotional Thought:

It’s easy to get wrapped up in church activities attending programmes, holding leadership roles, or tirelessly planning events all in the name of serving God.

Yet, without God’s approval and alignment with His standards, such efforts may amount to nothing in eternity.

Many believers, like those described by Apostle Paul, are full of zeal but lack the knowledge and understanding that come from true intimacy with God. They have unknowingly built their own frameworks for righteousness, giving themselves a spiritual pass mark yet never truly submitting to God’s way.

Sometimes, to realign with God, you must disconnect from the crowd and reconnect with the Creator. Take time to look into the mirror of God’s Word and ask yourself: “Who am I in Christ, really?” Not your titles or ministry achievements but your heart pure before God.

You can be active in the things of God and still miss His will. You can be committed to church work and still miss heaven. What matters most is a heart truly surrendered and a life that reflects God’s righteousness.

Now is the time to realign your ways and make your calling and election sure. Tomorrow is not promised. Your life has no sequel God owns it, and He can call you home at any moment. BE WISE!

Today’s Reflection:

Reassess your walk with God. Let go of self-made standards and fully embrace His righteousness.

Your life has no replay button – make it count for eternity.

Prayer:

Lord, search my heart and align it with Yours. Strip away every false standard I have built and bring me back to the purity of Your will.

Help me not just to work for You, but to walk with You. Teach me to live each day with heaven in view in Jesus’ Name – Amen.
