DO NOT LABOUR FOR PERISHABLES - JOHN 6:22 - 30
DO NOT LABOUR FOR PERISHABLES - JOHN 6:22 - 30
Don’t work for the food which perishes, but for the food which remains to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give to you. For God the Father has sealed him.” (v.27 WEB)
Everyone love good things; but not every good thing lasts. The struggle for that which is termed good may not be worth it when that thing does not last forever. There is something that is good and lasts forever; it is the food that GOD gives – HE is Jesus Christ. This is who GOD wants us to get - “This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he has sent.” – I pray that you will get Him and not miss Him. May you be graciously blessed.
At a time, Jesus Christ fed the people from five loaves and two fishes. The people sought after Him for this free miracle and meal. This is good, but does not last forever – the people would obviously go hungry again when they do not channel their energy aright to pursue after the Christ in truth. And this is another problem in our generation and time. People run after the miracles, money and meal they can get from the name and the service of Jesus Christ. We, many times fail to realize that the primary purpose of Jesus, the Christ is to save the world from the cruel bondage of Satan and sin. This is what leads to other benefits in life. Salvation through Christ when received and maintained is the only true thing that lasts forever and delivers one from perishing in hell. Labour to get this truth and be preserved in it. Death and destruction are not yours if you have Christ and you readily follow after His will and instructions to keep. Do not seek Christ for the miracles, fame or for money.
Perishable is subject to decay, destruction or death; it does not have eternal value. It will always end; its satisfaction (if any) is for a while; the joy derived (if any) from it is temporary. But there is a provision that lasts forever; this is what Jesus Christ has brought to us from GOD, because GOD is forever. Halleluiah!
Pray that the LORD help you direct your energy to seeking and serving HIM through Christ aright. Pray for preachers of the Gospel that they may do what is pleasing in the sight of GOD in all their dealings with the people. Pray a miracle of salvation in the name of Jesus Christ for someone today.
