SERVANTHOOD:
GODS CHANNEL FOR SUPERNATURAL PROMOTION.
MARK 10:43-44
Yet it shall not be so among you; but whoever DESIRES TO BECOME GREAT among you SHALL BE YOUR SERVANT.
RUTH 2:11
And Boaz answered and said to her, It has been fully reported to me, all that YOU HAVE DONE FOR YOUR MOTHER-IN-LAW since the death of your husband...
The Link from where you are to where you want to go, is through that ordinary, common, inglorious situation you are in. That is The road to that Great and Glorious Future you desire.
God always uses what you have at hand...A job. No job. Pain, misery, hardship, sorrow, name it...to take you to a great destiny.
Your test is in how you engage with what you have at hand. If you despise your current situation and grumble and complain at your lot in life, you will remain there permanently.
Many are missing out on God's best because they are waiting for a better tomorrow while despising their current situation.
Many are crying for a better situation. A more prosperous situation. Many are crying for a change in their circumstance.
But Glory and Greatness is inside that situation you are in.
I want to show you how to unwrap that Glory and experience it.
HERE IT IS...LOOK FOR SOMEONE OR SOMEHWERE TO SERVE. DO SOMETHING FOR SOMEONE. NOT JUST ONE TIME. GO OUT DAILY AND SERVE SOMEONE.
AN OPPORTUNITY TO SERVE SOMEONE IS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR YOUR OWN SITUATION TO CHANGE.
Jesus put it this way...do you want Greatness...that is, do you want a change for the better, a better life etc, don't look for it in the PRESTIGE OF STATUS, look for it in SERVANTHOOD.
Ruth was a Widow. She forgot her widowhood and her personal needs and served her Mother in Law.
Through her unusual SERVICE to Naomi she was noticed and recognized by the Riches Bachelor in Bethlehem. The rest as they say, became history.
That act of serving others is God's chosen strategy for lifting and promoting you.
If for one moment you would forget how important you are, and how educated you are, and how much money you used to have, and set aside you personal dignity and Reach out and serve someone somewhere you will be surprised.
And to those who are in positions of prestige and privilege, USE THAT TO SERVE SOMEONE SOMEWHERE.
By now you know prestige amd privilege cannot fill your heart and mind with real Joy or peace. Only God can give personal satisfaction and fulfillment of heart.
