The Work Was Well-Ordered!

2 Chronicles 8:16 “Now all the work of Solomon was well-ordered from the day of the foundation of the house of the LORD until it was finished. So, the house of the LORD was completed.”

The analysis of Solomon’s work in carrying out the assignment of building the temple is that it was well-ordered.  What a magnificent description of the diligence and dedication to doing God’s work. It reminds me of a few quotes such as “failure to plan is planning to fail,” “preparation precedes performance,” and “autograph your work with excellence.”  

How would you define well-ordered?  What does it look like in your home?  In your work?  In your church?  What does it look like in your life?

As we consider 2 Chronicles 8:16 let us ask a few introspective questions;
Do you go about your day taking actions that are well-ordered? 
Are you beginning with the end in mind?
Are you purposefully planning?  
Have you counted the cost?
Are you scheduling time to schedule your time?

As a reminder of being well-ordered in your actions please recall Colossians 3:17 as it says, “And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.”
As a reminder recall 1 Corinthians 14:40  Let all things be done decently and in order.
As a reminder recall Proverbs 22:29  “Do you see a man who excels in his work? He will stand before kings; He will not stand before unknown men.”

Well-ordered!!!  A great description that I trust is being used of you and your life, your work, and your ministry!   

Continue Strong with well-ordered actions,
And remember to DATE the Word
