Work wholeheartedly for the Lord – Prayer for January 24. How serious are you about the work you are doing now? Let’s tell God to give us the strength to be serious in our works.
Bible Verse for Today
“Work hard and do not be lazy. Serve the Lord with a heart full of devotion.” (Roman 12:11)
If you will manifest as more than the conqueror that you are, you must first conquer laziness in your life. If you fail to do this, it will affect every area of your life. It is common for a weakness in someone’s character to affect virtually every area of his life.
For instance, a worker who finds it difficult to get to work early enough or to get something done on time might get sacked someday. Getting serious about things is a thing that requires dedication and power; most of the time, getting things done is not easy, but we must keep pushing.
If you have identified some laziness and weakness in yourself, the best thing to do is to start adjusting before it is too late.
Doing God’s work requires even more seriousness. We should work wholeheartedly for the Lord. God does not want you to be cold or hot. That’s why He said He would cast them away from Himself. It is not His will that we should take things lightly. He doesn’t like that attitude.

God wants people who will work for him wholeheartedly and never compromise but stand firm in the faith. The Christian journey is not a journey for the lazy; it is a journey that must be taken seriously because of the dark powers and the enemies that are always ready to top us or destroy us.
We can’t play away some important things we ought to do. Jesus told us to be careful and also, at the same time, pray.
Work Wholeheartedly for the Lord – Prayer for Today
Lord, I pray today that if there is any way that I have been taking your work with a lackadaisical attitude, forgive me and help me to adjust. Teach me the right way to go and the right way to get things done. I pray that you give me the strength to overcome laziness. Lord, heal my weakness today, and let all I do give glory to your name. Amen.
