17th Jan 2015

Definition Work: Activity involving mental or physical (spiritual) effort done in order to achieve a purpose or result. 1. Work is an act of services that will be rewarded by God.

2. Our work is like sacrifice that can be Accepted or Rejected (Cain & Abel Gen 4:2-

8)

3. Worker are Vessels (which can Unto Honor / Dishonor) 2 Timothy 2:20-21

20But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of

wood and of earth; and some to Honour, and some to Dishonor

21If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour,

sanctified, and meet for the master's use, and prepared unto every good work. 2

Timothy 2:20-21

Acceptable Work/Service 1) Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor

device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest. Ecclesiastes

9:10

2) And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not to men; Colossians

3:23

3) And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him. Genesis 5:24

Rejected Work/Service

a) Deceitful (Ananias and Sapphira) Acts 5:1-10 b) On last day God will reject unfaithful workers (Matt 7:22-23)

22Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy

name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many

wonderful works? 23And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart

from me, ye that work iniquity. (Matt 7:22-23)

c) Work of the flesh.

Note: Your work will be tried in fire on the last day.

Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be

revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is. 1COR 3:13

The fire will test the quality of each man's work.
