Not In Vain



Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.

—1 Corinthians 15:58 (NKJV)



Heavenly Father,


May I never be moved off of the path You have set me on—because of what I see, or do not see happening—but only stand in the strength and power that comes from knowing You promised that nothing I do for You is ever useless.


Help me to be strong and immovable—having built my life on the solid foundation of my relationship with You, in Christ—as I choose to believe that You are my faithful and unfailing source of everything that I need to accomplish Your will for me.

Help me to work enthusiastically for You, trusting that the true value of what I do for You is not necessarily based on the results I see, but more likely based on things I may never see or know—which will be to Your glory, honor and praise in the end.

Help me always to trust that as I stand firm in my faith in You and commit myself to work diligently—in every moment of my day—at the thing that You have given me to do in that moment, You will cause Your will to be accomplished in and through me.


May I never be moved off of the path You have set me on—because of what I see, or do not see happening—but only stand in the strength and power that comes from knowing You promised that nothing I do for You is ever useless.


In the name of Jesus, Amen.
