TOPIC: SET TO GO

DCLM Daily Manna Devotional | MESSAGE:
Saints do not face death trembling; they approach it with hope, believing they are about to be freed from the troubles in this world. Apostle Paul had the same mindset in his last days at the prison in Rome when he was about to be executed for his unflinching work for the Lord. He was full of high spirits, and was not perturbed but remained strengthened by the Lord.
Paul expresses no bitterness in this last letter before his appointment with the executioner. In his lonely moments, he was able to remember loyal disciples who had worked with him to serve Jesus Christ. He recalls their labour of love as well as those who forsook him in his trying times; included in his reminiscence is Alexander the coppersmith, who Paul handed over to the Lord for the “much evil” he did to the Apostle. God’s judgment would always come upon those who endanger the work He placed in the charge of His saints.
Even in his seemingly dreary state when “no man stood with [him], but all men forsook [him]”, Paul took solace in the study of the word of God. Just as the whole life of Paul challenges us to a life of sacrificial service to Jesus Christ, the closing verses of his letter to Timothy reveal the faithfulness of the Lord to him since his Damascus encounter.
Discipleship is costly but has great eternal rewards. It is very necessary as the Lord advised that every believer should count the cost of following Him and make up his mind to either pay the price in full and be rewarded later or not. Halfhearted service is not acceptable to God. The mindset of every true believer should be as a songwriter puts it, “I am satisfied fully for Jesus to live… I’ll do as He bids me… I’ll be a true soldier, I’ll die at my post”.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: God does not fail those who do not fail Him.
THE BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 1 John 1-5
