Servanthood








Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. Romans 12:11 NIV

But as for you, be clear-headed in every situation [stay calm and cool and steady], endure every hardship [without flinching], do the work of an evangelist, fulfill [the duties of] your ministry.
2 Timothy 4:5 AMP

Serving is the heart of the Christian life. One of our responsibilities God gives us is to serve one another.  We are to be encouraging and passionate about spreading the word of God. We are to imitate Jesus; He is the ultimate example of serving.  Servanthood is one who is known as obedient and faithful to Christ.  Paul encouraged not only Timothy but all the Christians in Rome how to serve others. We are to live a lifestyle of servanthood. In every aspect and situation of our lives, we are to be good representatives of Christ in fulfilling our duties as Christians with spiritual fervor.


I believe as servants of God we must have a heavenly perspective. The work that we do is not in vain, and it is for the Kingdom of God.  In 1 Corinthians 15:58 it says, “Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your toil is not in vain in the Lord.” Don’t be lazy; be diligent in serving the Lord.  Believers will endure hardship, but through the difficulties, we are to remain steadfast obeying God's command over our lives.

Don't fall for those kinds attacks against you. The battlefield is in the mind so take every thought captive.The Word of God is our sword of the spirit. Jesus was the Word made flesh. Our lives are to become the Word of Jesus made flesh. As his body, we, too, become living swords. Take those promises and fight back! The weapons we use are not human ones. Our weapons have power from God and can destroy the enemy’s strong places. We destroy people’s arguments,     and we tear down every proud idea that raises itself against the knowledge of God. We also capture every thought and make it give up and obey Christ.   Corinthians 10:4-5 -M

Look at your giant already defeated. God has conquered it all. Despite what you are facing, look beyond the giant, the victory is already awaiting. You and I are to TRUST in God, when he said he conquered the world, it means he defeated every circumstance that you and I  have faced and will face. The waves that crashes unto our lives its not meant to drown us, it is meant for us to cling on to HOPE, which is the anchor of our lives which is strong and sure and keeps us safe. The storms may be strong but his presence is stronger.  Blessings M
