*DAILY DEW 3RD/AUGUST /2021*
*BE SELFLESS*
_Key Bible Text:_
*For God is not unrighteous to forget or overlook your labor and the love which you have shown for His name's sake in ministering to the needs of the saints (His own consecrated people), as you still do.*
(Hebrews 6:10 (Amp))
_Bible Insight:_
The major and most important transformation undergone by the believer is one of moving from selfishness or self centeredness to Christ-centeredness. If any man be in Christ, he is a new creation. The new creation man is a Christ oriented personality. It is actually the disappearance of self and the emergence and preeminence of Christ in me that makes me mature in Christ. Thus the scripture says, Christ in me the hope of glory!
God never forgets our labour of love for the brethren. Hence, God's faithfulness is constant. We need to therefore focus more on labouring in love. Why do we labour in love? Until we truly understand why, we won't labour effectively. We would be discouraged, in fact.
We don't labour in love to please self. We don't labour in love simply because of the love of the brethren. Even that reason, can fail as good and scriptural as it is. We labour in love for this reason:
*For God is not unrighteous to forget or overlook your labor and the love which you have shown FOR HIS NAME'S SAKE in ministering to the needs of the saints*
We labour for Christ's sake. We labour for the sake of the name of Christ. We labour to bring Christ glory. We don't labour because we love to. We labour because God says we should do so for Christ's sake.
May we be strengthened to do more for His name sake.
