I discovered why people don’t
value Church
and Bible Study.
They don’t see it as an
assignment from God.
Study to show your self
approved sounds like an assignment
to me 2 Timothy
Fail not the assemble of the
saints. Sounds like an assignment
To me Hebrews
Go make disciples, baptizing
them in the name of the Father, the Son
And the Holy Spirit. Sounds
like an assignment to me.
Matthew 28:19
It is good for brothering to
dwell in unity, Sounds like the benefit
Of the assignment. Psalms 133:1
Another reason people don’t take
their assignment seriously is
they don’t know God’s Grading
system.
God is paying attention to
how you handle what He gave you.
The World is the class room
and God is the teacher.
God uses good and evil to
teach us principles of His righteousness.
What you do for God, stores
up treasure in heaven sounds like grading.
Disobedience sets you up for
trouble, sounds like grading
God blesses those who work
on their assignments
God gave Adam Eve
God gave Eve a man with a job
A man with a home
A man with resources
A man who followed Him.
IN SUMMARY
YOU ARE A BLESSED PERSON
GOD WANTS YOU TO HAVE MORE

YOUR ASSIGNMENT WAS
DESIGNED FOR YOU

THROUGH ASSIGMENTS
GOD BLESSES YOU IN YOUR
ASSIGNMENT
