The Work of
my Hands
By Roy Lessin
And let the beauty and delightfulness and favor of the Lord
our God be upon us; confirm and establish the work of our hands—yes, the work
of our hands, confirm and establish it. Psalm 90:17 AMPC
It’s a wonderful thing to know that God’s favor and blessing
can be upon the work we are doing. Sometimes we can mistakenly think that God
only cares about the work of the pastors, youth leaders, choir members, and
missionaries, but doesn’t care about us and what we do.
It is easy to think that a job in the workplace is secular work
and a job in the church is Christian work. If God has provided you with a job
in the workplace He wants to bless you in the workplace. All honorable work
that is done unto the Lord can glorify Him and accomplish His purpose.
He wants to bless the work of your hands. He wants to bless
your employer through the work you do, He wants to bless others through the
work of your hands, and He wants to bless you. He wants to bless you with
success, with an income, with productivity, and with favor.
Lord, thank you for my job and for allowing me to be in the
workplace. Thank you that this is your appointed place for me at this time.
Thank you that you care about me and what I do. I am so glad to know that I can
have your blessing upon my life and upon what I do. Bless the work of my hands
today. Bless the company I work for and make them successful. I thank you for
the income that I am receiving through this work and that I can use it to meet
my needs and bless others. Continue to bless me and grant me your favor.
