Christianity at the workplace

Scripture

Proverbs 12:11

11 A hard worker has plenty of food, but a person who chases fantasies has no sense.

Observation

Success or fruitfulness takes hard work.  The Bible teaches that followers of Jesus is to have a good worth ethic.  A hard worker will have plenty but he who chases fantasies will experience lack.  

1. Christians should be the best workers in the workplace.

2. Christians should have the highest ethics.

3. Christians should be a witness is word and deed in the workplace.

4. Christians should never be lazy.

5. Christians should honor their employers.

Application

My faith is not just private or to be displayed at the church.  My faith must be demonstrate in the marketplace.  A person of character and integrity will shine like stars in the heavens.  We will draw people to Christ by demonstrating the fruit of the Spirit to our co-workers.  We also proclaim with our mouths,  no position or salary package should silence us.  Jesus said if we are are ashamed of him on the earth, he will be ashame of us in heaven.  Followers of Jesus ought to be willing to suffer for the cause of Christ.

Prayer

Make me a man of character and integrity.  May I be a good example by my work ethic and give me a boldness and courage to always proclaim.
