God’s Word for Today - 11 May 2024
Colossians 4:1 KJV — Masters, give unto your servants that which is just and equal; knowing that ye also have a Master in heaven.
Reflection on God’s Word for Today - 11 May 2024
There’s so much unrest and hullabaloo in society because of the injustice that people suffer, especially in the workplace as relating to how work is valued and workers remunerated. Employer- Employee relationships are anything but harmonious. Many owners of businesses are more interested in the health of their profits than the wellbeing of their staff. They will go to any length to satisfy their shareholders than give those who labour for the good of the business a fair share of the fruit. This is, to say the least, very callous and contrary to the will of Jehovah. It is disheartening to know that businesses owned and run by those who should know better – those named after Christ, are not exempt from this despicable behaviour. But this should not be so. I am calling on you today to repent and change if you are guilty of this behaviour. Start to treat your employees with the dignity they deserve and pay them wages commensurate for living life in God-honouring way.
Pray: Heavenly Lord, thank You for giving me a business and making me an employer, help me to be an employer after Your heart. #Mok
