The Grands Letter (I Chron/GLJ)
Gene L. Jeffries, Th.D. on May 14, 2025 5:13 am (CST)Dear Grands,
I Chronicles 4:23, โThese were the potters and the inhabitants of Netaim and Gederah; they lived there with the king for his work.โ
Regardless of who the king is, his work cannot be carried on alone. Scores of men and women are needed to render all work profitably. Such might well be said of those in every kingdom. No king can live and do what is expected of him without sufficient, intelligent cooperative help.
At the same time, and assuming that the king exists for his people, the value of what he does for his people relies heavily upon those who labor, as it were, for the king.
Throughout the Scriptures, we find the LORD focusing upon His people. Those congregations that exalt Him are those who love Him and live by His eternal Word. All in all, the work is reciprocal. Certainly, we rely upon His eternal wisdom and blessing; therefore, we share in the responsibilities and the productivity.
Are you sharing in the responsibilities the LORD has assigned to you? Being as He is thoroughly in charge, He has every right to expect that you and I will be cooperative and ultimately produce according to His assignment.
What is it that the LORD has called you to do? If youโre unaware of what it is, you need to prayerfully seek His will. Like with Ruth the Moabitess, there is always some grain to glean โ grain that has been missed by the reapers.
Heartily in Christ Jesus,
(Dado III)
