Daily Devotional

Ever felt like you weren't doing enough in the Kingdom of God? Well, here are a few job opportunities that have come up:

1. Preach good tidings to the meek — All that is required for this position is your "Don't Worry, Be Happy" t-shirt and a jovial, Spirit- filled attitude. Your responsibility will include reaching out to the meek, the humble and the afflicted and giving them the good news of salvation.

2. Bind up the broken-hearted — Do you have the unfailing love of Christ in you? Put that gift to good use and help the Kingdom bind up those lives that have been wrecked by the enemys evil-doing.

3. Proclaim liberty to the captives and the opening of the prison to them that are bound — Whoa. This is a good one. The person who fills this position has an undying hatred towards sin and the works of the enemy. Tired of seeing your family sick or your friends bound by the enemy? Then lay hold of the Word of God and set them free from sin and death in the mighty and dynamic name of JESUS.

4. Proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord — JESUS is coming back again. That is a hope that each and every believer clings to and knows. But take it a step further and proclaim this hope to those around you. The time of great jubilee is upon us, and the Kingdom needs people to proclaim the good news. Its time to give people a Godly hope, rather than the worldly "wishful thinking" attitude that people hold onto.

5. To comfort all that mourn — Are you a person who can empathize with others? Do you feel anothers pain? Well, don't just feel the pain, do something about it. The world is filled with unhappiness, and the Kingdom needs exterminators. The Kingdom needs you to reach out to those in pain; if you're too shy to tell people about JESUS, let your works talk for you.

Do any of these positions appeal to you? Care to apply? All that is required is your willingness to submit to His calling.
