In the Bible we read of men and women who are described as being righteous before God. These are men and women who were always available to God for service. They were always correctly positioned for God to use them disregarding their circumstances. These were great men and women of faith. Abraham, the father of faith for example was always available whenever God wanted to talk to him or to give him a task. Whatever God commanded him to do, Abraham always obeyed without compromising or bargaining. When Jesus Christ came into this world, He was always available to His Father for service even from childhood. In Luke 2:49, when He was only twelve years old, and when His parents found Him in the temple among the teachers of the law, He answered them saying, “Why did you seek Me? Did you not know that l must be about My Father’s business?” In the book of Acts, the Apostles were always available for service to God. God performed mighty works through them as they went about witnessing for the Risen LORD Jesus Christ. For example, Acts 19:11 says, “Now God worked unusual miracles by the hands of Paul, so that even handkerchiefs or aprons were brought from his body to the sick and the diseases left them and the evil spirits went out of them.” During this year, the LORD would like to do mighty works for the manifestation of His glory through your life. However for this to happen, you must position yourself in that position where you can be attractive to God just as Abraham and the Apostles positioned. Abide in God’s Word and be a doer of the Word. It is the living Word of God that is able to cause you to be always available to God for Him to use you for His glory. Alleluia!

Prayer

Help me LORD Jesus Christ not to be a reader of Your Word but to be a doer of the Word also and that l may be readily available as Your chosen instrument. In Jesus Christ’s name l pray. Amen.
