THE PILGRIMS GUIDE WEDNESDAY AUGUST 12, 2026 THE MARKETPLACE AS A PLATFORM FOR MINISTRY 2 A WORD FROM THE WORD: "Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place." 2 Corinthians 2:14 KJV Your place of work is your platform of ministry to live (and preach Christ). This is what you received by mercy, you mustn't grow weary as an apostle in the marketplace in manifesting Christ in your place of work or business. It is a responsibility, and you're not being required by Heaven to do what has not been done before; the LORD Jesus laid an example for us when He manifested the life of the Father at every opportunity 'full of grace and truth' during His earthly ministry through His attitude and conduct.. If your faith is anchored on the hope of the resurrection after death, then you should be ready to lose out in every temporary income in order to gain the rewards of eternity with God. But if it is mainly seeking the gains of this life, then it would be difficult to have that practical relevance of quality honour to honour God in your place of work or business. PRAYER BULLETS: LORD Jesus, thank You for the privilege of knowing and drawing close to You. Strengthen me so that my testimony of life from my platform, even my place of work/business will bring You glory externally. FURTHER READING: 2 Corinthians 4:1-18; Philippians 1:20-21. __________________________________________ ©️ Amaobi Nwachukwu 2026. If you're blessed by this, please, do share with others.
