ANGLICAN COMMUNION DEVOTIONAL OUTLINE FOR 9TH NOVEMBER 2023.
Our text begins with a reminder that God will judge every one of us according to how we spend our life here on earth. Both the righteous and the unrighteous, the just and the unjust will be judged. Verse 22 again counsels us that we would do good by enjoying the time and season God allocates to us doing His will while we live.
Chapter 4 encourages us to live a contented life which leads to happiness and that we should find joy in whatever work we do in this passing world. The chapter equally confronts us with the fact that experiencing difficulty like oppression and inequality in certain areas and situations of life should not be strange to us.
This is part of the consequences of the fall of man in the Garden of Eden. The writer calls for a quiet and peaceful life by living harmoniously with ourselves and others. This will help us to be happy with a contented life – “… for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of the things he possesses” (Luke 12:15).
Beloved, are you happy and contented with what God has assigned to you in things material and immaterial? If you are not contented, you will never be happy. Only the contented are always happy as they pray and look forward to God taking them to better levels.
PRAYER: Heavenly Father, please give me the spirit of contentment and with everything you have given me in Jesus’ name, Amen.
