TOPIC: RECORD KEEPING AND HOLINESS MINISTRY
JULY SATURDAY 7th
Text: Matthew 1:1-17
Key Verse: And the Lord said unto Moses, Write this for a memorial in a book, and rehearse it in the ears of Joshua: for I will utterly put out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven. Exodus 17: 14
The Holy Scripture is a book of record that shows the mind and work of God among men. It gives a glimpse of the work of God in heaven and the whole universe. In the Holy Bible you will find statistics of number of people, family members, genealogy, first born, meetings and so on. For instance, it tells us five thousand people ate the five loaves apart from women and children, five hundred people saw Jesus ascend into heaven, two people were on the way to Emmaus when resurrected Jesus met them, one hundred and twenty people were in the upper room on the Day of Pentecost. Also, you will find out in the scriptures that records of finances were diligently kept and strictly supervised for holiness and righteousness sake.
In following this pattern, there should be books of records in the church to record events such as miracles, properties acquired, crusades held, people that left and why they left etc. Such record is valuable for posterity and future reference. Even God keeps record of his words and works in the bible. Isaiah 34:16 says, “Seek ye out of the book of the Lord, and read: no one of these shall fail, none shall want her mate: for my mouth it hath commanded, and his spirit it hath gathered them.
Record keeping helps you keep track of God's grace in your ministry, the mileage you have covered and how to do more. God Himself is keeping record of the lives of individuals against the day of judgment (Revelation 20:11-15). If you understand that you have to give account of all your activities to God, whether in your private life or ministry or public service, then you need to keep good record in order that you may not be found wanton. Record keeping pleases the heart of God because it is a sign of transparency, accountability and integrity. It is a proof that you are a faithful servant who diligently does his work and keeps record in order that when your Master comes you will be able to give him good account of your service.
Thought for the day: Be diligent in record keeping because it pleases God.
Song for the day: Christian, walk carefully
Bible reading for the day: Job 35-37; Acts 14
