STEEMCHURCH- Called to serve.
THE SERVICE:
Many Believe Today That Serving Someone Is Something Denigrating, Humiliating, and Dishonorable, But To Truth Service, It Is A Work Of Honor, And Of Prestige In The Eyes Of GOD.
Let's look at:
Luke. 22: 24-30
"Then they began to argue over which of them was the most important." Jesus said to them, "The kings of the nations rule over them as owners, and the very ones who oppress them call themselves benefactors." 26 But it will not be like that among you. On the contrary, the most important among you must behave as if he were the last, and the one who commands, as if he were serving 27. Because who is more important: the one who is at the table or the one who is serving? The one who is sitting, of course, and yet I am among you as the one who serves. "
"You are the ones who have stayed with me, sharing my trials." 29.That is why I give you authority as my Father gave it to me by making me king. 30. You will eat and drink at my table in my Kingdom, and you will sit on thrones for govern the twelve tribes of Israel. "
What does it mean to Serve?
It's Working for Someone, as a Servant or Servant.
When GOD calls you, do not take into account the condition in which you find yourself, your situation, or occupation.
The Purpose Of GOD'S Call Is To Bless You, Prosper Yourself In Great Way, And Prepare Yourself For Service. (Genesis 12: 2)
We notice through the Bible, that all those whom GOD has called, are people who were occupied. (1 Kings 19:19)
Thus, Elysium left all that he had, and what he did, to attend to the call made to him by God through the prophet Elijah, and did not present any excuse, (only to ask him to let him kiss his parents).
Moses Was Also Busy, Shepherd the Sheep of His Father-in-Law Jethro Priest of Midian, When GOD Called Him Through the Burning Bush (Exodus 8: 1-3)
When JESUS started, making the call to his disciples, Jesus did not take into account what they were doing, he just told them to follow me, and they followed them.
We observe that they did not use their work as a pretext, they only attended the call, and leaving everything, they had in their hearts to follow him (Matthew 4: 18-22, Mark 1: 16-20, Luke 5: 27-32 ).
Would We Be Willing To Leave Everything To Follow, And Serve JESUS CHRIST?
Like Abraham Who Left Earth, and Parentela, To Appeal To The Call Of God.
(Genesis 12: 1-3)
Leaving everything does not mean you have to give up your work, study, sell your house or everything you have.
What does that mean? That is why you do not have to have more love for these things than for God, and you have to be willing to leave it when God asks you, when God sends you to another place.
Jesus said: "... I am among you as one who serves" (Luke 22:27). As true disciples of Jesus, we must also serve others.

Most men don't know that when you serve someone you make your star shine bright. Its ancient wisdom some men can't understand that.
If you read about Solomon in the bible he grew up as a servant to his father even though he was a prince and so that is the reason why Solomon became the king after his father David because he had served him and he had the skills of a leader because he had served his father the king.
Christians let's learn to serve somebody in life, always serve God will find you serving and he will reward you.
