Pay Their Wages

HonorBound Devotion: June 10, 2010

Read James 5:4 – Look! The wages you failed to pay the workmen who mowed your fields are crying out against you. The cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord Almighty.

If someone works for you then you should pay them their wages according to the agreement made. People who work from one contract to the next many times live paycheck to paycheck. They don’t often have much reserve. For the man employing day labor, a loss of a salary may mean you have to put off a purchase. For a laborer the loss may affect dinner for his family. The man who labors is worthy of his wages. Act fair with others and God will bless your endeavors.
