Inspiration
When we do beautiful things for Jesus, we receive His shielding presence from every opposition. Every good deed we do with the exaltation of God in mind will receive a glorious commendation from the Lord (Hebrews 11:6; Galatians 6:9). Every work we do for Jesus will receive His reward of protection, blessings, and eternal life in eternity (Matthew 19:29). Your good works are ever before God, and His eyes are watching when men are castigating and trying to condemn you for every good thing you do that they don’t understand.
Being misunderstood is an intrinsic part of the Christian life. The world will not always understand you, and sometimes, they may even fight you for doing what they can’t. Don’t be surprised to find people in your local church who also misjudge you for the good deeds you do. However, whatever the case may be, don’t stop doing the good works you do for Jesus. Opposition and resistance may come from the world, as well as those in the church, but you must find encouragement in knowing that you have the hand of God protecting you from the evil eyes that stare wickedly at you and work against your progress.
As children of God, we should strive to do good works, not for the recognition of men but for the glory of God. Let us keep our eyes fixed on Him and continue to do His will, trusting in His protection and reward.
Prayer
Lord Jesus, I'm grateful for Your sweet love that surrounds me. When people rise against me because of my service to You, I know I don't have to defend myself because You will. You are my rock and shield. Even in matters I'm unaware of, You always have my back and keep me safe. Give me the strength to keep doing good, beautiful things for the kingdom. I know You're a rewarder, and You will bless me with every good and perfect gift from above. Thank You, Lord. Amen.
