“The Work of His Good Pleasure”

Blessings folk!

Believers!
Fear not!
Live by faith!
“Work out”…live out the salvation and faith that we have though the mercy of the Most High God.

Heed…

Phl 2:12-13

So then, my beloved,
just as you have always obeyed,
not as in my presence only,
but now much more in my absence,
work out your salvation with fear and trembling;

for it is God who is at work in you,
both to will and to work for His good pleasure.

We are called to “work out your salvation with fear and trembling…”

This speaks of living out the life of faith/belief/salvation with fear and trembling before the Lord.

We do not fear man.
We do not fear the enemy.
We fear the Lord…reverential awe, an understanding that we are accountable to the Lord, profound reverence, respect, dread (Zodiahtes)

We are “working out our salvation” knowing that it is God who is at work in us.

Think on that.

It is not us “working to attain/maintain” salvation.
It is us doing the work that the Lord is doing within us.

It is His work.
According to His will.
For His good pleasure.

We simply join in doing that which He desires and is doing.
