HOW REAL SERVANTS ACT

Mark 10:35-45
Devotional:- “Yet it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you shall be your servant” [v.43].


    The world defines greatness in terms of power, possessions, prestige and position but God determined your greatness by how many people you serve. This is quite contrary to the world view. Jesus called Himself servant and to be like Him is to be a servant. That is why it is so important to have a servant’s heart. God often test our heart by asking us to serve even outside our shape or area of interest. Your priority area of service should be in your area of shape, but God could demand for your service wherever needed.

Looking at how a servant act is important because one could serve in a church for years and not be a real servant. Real servants make themselves available to serve. If you only serve when it is convenient, then you are not a good servant (2 Timothy 2:4). Real servants pay attention to needs, always looking out for how to help others (Proverb 3:28). Real servants do their best with what they have. They don't give excuses. 

Real servants do every task with equal dedication (Colossians 3:23). They know great opportunity often disguised themselves in small task. Small tasks show a big heart. Real servants are faithful in their ministries. They don't leave job half way done. Real servants maintain low profile. They don't call attention to themselves (1 Peter 5:5; Matt.6:1; Gal.1:10). Be humble in service and let God promote you (Col. 3:4). In heaven, secret services will be more rewarded. Peace!

PRAYER: Lord, put in me the heart of a real servant.

DOMINION

  DOMINION   Psalms 8:1-9 Devotional:- “You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet” (V. 6) NKJV      At creation, man was given dominion over all that God created. This office was at that time a terrifying one for other creatures and even the devil. (Psalms 8.6; Psalms 110:1-3). It was this office that the devil was after that he had to deceive man and steal. You will observe that man was the last creature of God (Genesis 1:26). Yet he was made to have dominion over all that existed before him. The devil saw this as partiality on the side of God. He did not know that though man was the last creation yet the finest. The man was finally created to be in charge of all creation.

MASTER’S MINAS Luke 19:11-27 Devotional:- “So he called ten of his servants, delivered to them ten minas, and said to them, 'Do business till I come” (V. 13) NKJV      The word of God instructs us to do business. The Bible did not advise us to do business but it commanded us. That is why it would be wrong for you and me to be without a business. That makes idleness a crime against self (1 Thessalonians 4:11). Business is whatever you are doing to earn income. God will not accommodate idleness with anyone because He invested heavily in us.
