July 6 – Work Hard, Trust God

In today’s episode, Pastor Brandon Dirmann shares a devotion from Hebrews 3:4, where the writer observes that every house is built by someone, yet ultimately God is the builder of all things. This passage highlights an important tension found throughout Scripture: believers are called to faithfully do their part while recognizing that God alone brings lasting fruit and success. Pastor Brandon reminds listeners that following Christ is neither passive nor self-reliant. We are called to work diligently, steward our responsibilities well, and faithfully use the gifts and opportunities God has given us. At the same time, our confidence cannot rest in our own effort or ability. Like a farmer who prepares the soil and plants the seed but cannot make it grow, we labor faithfully while trusting God to bless, sustain, and produce the results. Whether in our families, careers, ministries, or relationships, we are called to work with excellence while surrendering the outcome to the Lord. As we embrace both diligence and dependence, we discover the peace of knowing that God is faithfully building what He has called us to steward.Today's Reading:July 6 – Isaiah 5–7; Hebrews 3
