That divine spark of His Spirit

Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with your might. (Ecclesiastes 9:10 ESV)

If there’s anything that catches people’s attention and causes them to take notice of what you’re saying or doing, it’s enthusiasm! The word enthusiasm is derived from two Greek words: en, which means in, and theos, which means God. So enthusiasm literally means “in God,” or “God in us.”

Thus the truly enthusiastic person is one who acts and speaks as if he were possessed by God. Nothing can stop the man who is on fire for God. He will keep going no matter what.

So where do we get such enthusiasm, this inspiration that fills a life with fire and fervor for the Lord? From the Holy Spirit of God! In everything you do, even the most menial tasks, you can be happy, inspired, and full of enthusiasm.

If you’re asking the Lord to inspire you, He will give you that divine spark of His Spirit that will make every little task a joy! Just pray and ask Him to fill you with the power of His Holy Spirit, and He will. [1]

I have found that I have no unusual endowments of intellect, but this day, I resolve that I will be an uncommon Christian. - David Livingstone
