TOPIC: FOLLOW HIM IN SERVICE 2
If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honour. (John 12:26)
Where God is now will takes the grace of God upon your life through service with a willing heart to get there so that you can also have rest, peace because He’s seated at the right hand side of the father. To follow we need God because our life is hid in Christ and Christ in GOD.
Serving can strengthen your dwelling in Him and can also guarantee your dwelling in His presence. “He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty” (Psalm 91:1)
The power that used to look for you and sometimes deals badly with you after today, they shall look for you in their microscope, satellite but they won’t have access again to your life and every power that use to take you at will and devastate your destiny, after now they shall search you with their search light but they shall not get you because the wall of fire is raised around you and the power of God rises around you, the blood of Jesus shall reign as a wall of defend around you in the name of Jesus. Henceforth your sleep shall be sweet and nothing shall torment you again in the name of Jesus.
Kingdom service and fake worship do not mix: If you must serve God qualitatively for a trans- generational dividend then we must drop fake worship.
What do we mean by fake worship? Jesus says this people shows concern with their lips; but their heart is far from me. (Matthew 15:7-8 ) Child of God, let me ask you this question who has stolen your heart from the Lord? That’s why the bible instructs us “Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let [them] slip”( Hebrews 2:1)
Child of God, there are things you hear that has the capacity and ability to pull your heart away from the Lord. And the first demand God places on us before any other thing is “My son, give me thine heart, and let thine eyes observe my ways” (Proverbs 23:26)
He didn’t say give me your money but your heart. The greatest requirement for kingdom service that will profit you is not all about your life possession but God needs your heart. Jesus says their heart is far from me, that’s saying something else with the mouth and planning something else with their heart. Just like a lawmaker in the Senate, House of Representative and House of Assembly whose heart with the devil, reasoning things in consonance with the dictate of the devil yet he/she is saying some good and pleasant things with the mouth. May this never be your portion in the mighty name of Jesus.
What makes you think that God does not see our heart? God knows even what you have and will ever say. He’s our maker, so nothing takes him by surprise. That is why we should always be on the watch, praying and interceding for ourselves because though he knows certain things will happen that might stop you from being in his presence. But if you begin to work and do the needful then God will lift every circumstance that might have want to stop you before the time comes. But when we don’t work, we keep God’s hands tied.
Humanity is the heart, “For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also” (Matthew 6:21)
So you can’t say your heart is for the kingdom of God and the house of God and your substances or your treasure is somewhere else. NO! Because where your heart is, that’s where you will invest your treasure. Treasure of love, care, concern, time, energy, these are some treasures that money cannot buy, the material and financial treasure all these are treasures we invest if our heart is given to something. When a man’s heart is in the things of the kingdom he is jealous and zealous for it .
“And he said, I have been very jealous for the LORD God of hosts: for the children of Israel have forsaken thy covenant, thrown down thine altars, and slain thy prophets with the sword; and I, [even] I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away” ( 1 Kings 19:10)
He calls us His bride and He is our bridegroom, when we get to a level of relationship where we are no longer jealous of our bridegroom then something is wrong. Matthew 25:5-13 recorded that “While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him. Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out.
But the wise answered, saying, [Not so]; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves. And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut. Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us. But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not. Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh”
MEDITATION:
I receive divine insight and the grace to break forth on every side.
PRAYER:
- Holy Spirit, empower me with spiritual energy to run this Christian race in Jesus name.
- Every red sea on my way to fulfill destiny dry up in the mighty name of Jesus.
