SCRIPTURE: Matthew (NIV) 24:45 “Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom the master has put in charge of the servants in his household to give them their food at the proper time? 46 It will be good for that servant whose master finds him doing so when he returns. 47 I tell you the truth, he will put him in charge of all his possessions.
OBSERVATION: In the Bible we often read of people referring to Jesus as Lord. Many Christians today call Him Lord. If someone living in this area mentions “the Lord” it is commonly taken that they are speaking of Jesus.
When I call Jesus Lord or refer to Him as Lord, by my words I am implying that I am his servant.
Being His servant has responsibilities as well as the potential of great reward.
APPLICATION: What a blessing to think about heaven and the rewards God has prepared for us. I like to sing songs about heaven.
But it is also important that I carry out the responsibilities of being His servant. I need to understand that the assignments given a servant are not for the pleasure of the servant but the pleasure of the Lord!
PRAYER: Lord, as your servant, may I bring you pleasure. What is your pleasure for me today? Amen
