Have you ever tried to accomplish something without the co-operation of those whom you have asked to assist you? Let me tell you, the task becomes almost impossible to complete.

The same applies when it comes to completing God’s Work. What is Winter without Summer, and/or the other seasons? Today we shall like for you to turn your attention to First Corinthians, Chapter 3, and Verse 9; where we are told “For we are laborer’s together with God: ye are God's husbandry, ye are God's building.” And for our topic we shall use this subject: CO-OPERATING WITH GOD.

IN THIS chapter the Apostle describes the Church as a garden or vineyard, in which the Divine Spirit is ever at work, superintending, directing, inspiring, and calling to co-operate with Him all His servants, whether they be Paul, Apollos, or Cephas; or as a vast temple, rising through the ages, requiring laborers to lay the foundations, others to build the walls, and others to put the final touches in the light of an accomplished purpose.

In each case, the design, the successive stages of advancing progress, the engagement of the workers, the direction of their labors and their reward is entirely with the Husband-man and the Master-Builder. It is not our work, but His; we are not responsible for the results, but only to do His Will; He repays us by generous rewards, but there our responsibility ends.
