Many Called, Few Chosen (True HR Management)

Recently, while studying in a business leadership course on Human Resource Management, I came across a prompt to share a worship thought, dealing with the subject. A helpful insight and devotional thought came to mind on some of the words of Jesus, which fit the setting in which he shared them. Being pleased with the resulting insight and devotion from the words of Jesus, I felt I should share them here to extend the lesson to more. God bless you in the ways of His truth!

Jesus said, “Many are called, but few are chosen” (Matthew 20:16). Continue reading →

God’s Stance, Leading, and Help in this sin-sick, suffering World

“Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution. 13 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.” (2 Timothy 3:12-13)

Evil happens too much in our world and, unfortunately, it will happen more too. This, we are promised in God’s word. These are all signs of a planet in rebellion to the will and love of God. For the time, God permits much because we must learn to understand the Continue reading →

If the Church was a Business

“And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about my Father’s business?” – Jesus (Luke 2:49).

Jesus was all about His Father’s business or work! He ate, slept, and breathed His father’s work. He was constantly in prayer about it (Matthew 6:10). He came “to seek and to save” the lost and to “give his life a ransom for many” (Luke 19:10; Matthew 20:28). He said that those who followed him would be made into “fishers of men” (Matthew 4:19), and that we should pray for the Father to “send forth laborers into His harvest” (Matthew 9:38; Luke 10:2).

Having Vision-empowered Action

“Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he.”- Proverbs 29:10

A quick thought here. The Bible says “where there is no vision, the people perish.” As always, the Bible stays true to life!

God gives us wisdom, guidance, and direction from His word. He also inspires us with ideas for the future and what we need to do about it. Unless we have this vision, in a practical sense, then we will be Continue reading →

Helping Those In Need

One of the greatest revival chapters in the whole Bible, Isaiah 58, brings to light our duty as followers of God to be His helping hands in the world, to relieve the suffering we see around us, and to care for those of humanity who are in greater need than us! God expects us to lift up our fellow men and to help them out of difficult or tight places. God desires that we should help men and women to a place where they also can become strong helpers of others. Continue reading →
