Joy in His Service

Whosoever will be great among you, shall be your minister: and whosoever of you will be the chiefest, shall be servant of all. Mark 10:43, 44.

It is in a life of service only that true happiness is found. He who lives a useless, selfish life is miserable. He is dissatisfied with himself and with everyone else. The Lord disciplines His workers that they may be prepared to fill the places appointed them. Thus He desires to fit them to do more acceptable service....

There are many who are not satisfied to serve God cheerfully in the place that He has marked out for them or to do uncomplainingly the work that He has placed in their hands. It is right for us to be dissatisfied with the way in which we perform duty, but we are not to be dissatisfied with the duty itself, because we would rather do something else. In His providence God places before human beings service that will be as medicine to their diseased minds. Thus He seeks to lead them to put aside the selfish preference, which if cherished would disqualify them for the work He has for them.

There are those who desire to be a ruling power and who need the sanctification of submission. God brings about a change in their lives. Perhaps He places before them duties that they would not choose. If they are willing to be guided by Him, He will give them grace and strength to perform these duties in a spirit of submission and helpfulness. Thus they are being qualified to fill places where their disciplined abilities will make them of great service.

Some, God trains by bringing to them disappointment and apparent failure. It is His purpose that they shall learn to master difficulty. He inspires them with a determination to make every apparent failure prove a success.

Often men pray and weep because of the perplexities and obstacles that confront them. But if they will hold the beginning of their confidence steadfast unto the end He will make their way clear. Success will come to them as they struggle against apparently insurmountable difficulties, and with success will come the greatest joy.

Take care of our earthly bodies
Why should we care for our health? Paul reminds us of the importance of why we were created: for God to dwell with us. “Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body” (1 Corinthians 6:19,20). He goes on to say “whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God” (1 Corinthians 10:31).

Mental health matters as much as physical health
King Solomon, the wisest man on earth, understood the connection of mind and health: “A joyful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones” (Proverbs 17:22) and “A tranquil heart gives life to the flesh, but envy makes the bones rot” (Proverbs 14:30).

Keep a positive attitude
“A bright look brings joy to the heart, and good news gives health to the body.” (Proverbs 15:30)

Stay away from alcohol
While the Bible does include examples of alcohol usage, it is also clear that it is a dangerous substance. “Those who are champions at drinking wine are as good as dead, who display great courage when mixing strong drinks” (Isaiah 5:22). Strong words from Isaiah and Proverbs doesn’t hold back either. “Do not gaze at wine when it is red, when it sparkles in the cup, when it goes down smoothly! In the end it bites like a snake and poisons like a viper” (Proverbs 23:31,32).

Balance hard work with rest
God encourages hard work but always balanced out by rest. His gift of the Sabbath has so many benefits. “Better is a handful of rest than a double handful of hard work and striving after the wind” (Ecclesiastes 4:6). The Ten Commandments put it this way: “Six days you shall labour and do all your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God. In it you shall do no work” (Exodus 20:9,10). According to the Bible, the work must be enjoyed. Make meal time a happy time. “Every man should eat and drink and enjoy the good of all his labour—it is the gift of God” (Ecclesiastes 3:13).

Sleep is important
“The sleep of a labouring man is sweet” (Ecclesiastes 5:12) and “It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late” (Psalm 127:2). Better start prioritising those ZZZs.

Eat in moderation
While some church lunches may contradict this principle, it is important to exercise moderation in our lives and diets. “Have you found honey? Eat only as much as you need, lest you be filled with it and vomit” (Proverbs 25:16) and “do not join those who drink too much wine or gorge themselves on meat, for drunkards and gluttons become poor, and drowsiness clothes them in rags” (Proverbs 23:20,21).

A plant-based diet is what God intended for us
From the very start God said “Behold, I give you every plant that produces seeds upon the earth and every tree that has fruit with its seed inside of it: these shall be your food” (Genesis 1:29). Daniel provides a later biblical example of the benefits of a plant-based diet. “Daniel resolved he would not defile himself with the royal rations of food and wine . . . ‘Let us be given vegetables to eat and water to drink’ . . . At the end of ten days it was observed that they appeared better and fatter than all the young men who had been eating the royal rations” (Daniel 1:8,11,12,15).

Put full trust in God
Studies have shown that a healthy prayer life, faith in a higher being and strong belief can all enhance the quality and length of your life. The Bible backs that up. “The fear of the Lord leads to life, and he who has it will abide in satisfaction” (Proverbs 19:23) and “give attention to my words . . . for they are life to those who find them, and health to all their flesh” (Proverbs 4:20,22).

Obey God’s Word to live longer
“My son, do not forget my law, but let your heart keep my commands; for length of days and long life and peace they will add to you” (Proverbs 3:1,2). Bonus time for honouring your parents as well (see the fifth commandment in Exodus 20:12).
