Doing Good To Others

“Let us not become weary in doing good…”
—Galatians 6:9a

A “Kingdom” exists wherever a King is recognized and that King’s wishes are obeyed.

Our Savior, the Son of God—the Lord Jesus Christ—ushered in His Kingdom here on earth when He took on human form over 2,000 years ago. Therefore, the Kingdom of God exists right here and right now, wherever people recognize Jesus as King and determine to obey His will. As believers, it is our task to develop an understanding of the essence of Christ’s mission here on earth and then connect ourselves to that mission.

One aspect of the essence of Christ’s mission is for His devoted followers to do good to others in Jesus’ name. As the Apostle Paul taught in Galatians 6:9-10:

Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers.

As our night of rest fades into a new and busy day ahead, let’s determine to make every effort, as we are enabled by the Holy Spirit, to do good to others in the name of our King Jesus.
