SERVANT WITH FAITH

Luke  17: 5 And the apostles said unto the Lord, Increase our faith. 6 And the Lord said If ye had faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye might say unto this sycamine tree, Be thou plucked up by the root, and be thou planted in the sea, and it should obey you. 7 But which of you, having a servant plowing or feeding cattle, will say unto him by and by, when he is come from the field, Go and sit down to meat?  8 And will not rather say unto him, Make ready wherewith I may sup, and strengthen thyself, and serve me, till I have eaten and drunken; and afterward thou shalt eat and drink?  9 Doth he thanks, that servant because he did the things that were commanded him? I trow not.

God want us to have so much faith in Him; that even in the face of death, we trust Him.  We can have faith as tiny as a mustard seed for God to work miracles’ in our lives. Our problem is obeying what we believe without a doubt “God is Who and What He says He is”.  When we work all day to make a living and come home to rest; and God calls for our assistance with one of our brothers or sisters, we have to come.  God does not care about all the practical demands’ we put on ourselves because of our desire for material possessions.  He needs us to work for Spiritual properties, and we are not to expect payment for doing what servants do, serving the Master.  When we serve and obey God, we are doing what we were created to do “that’s our purpose” to be SERVANT to God and the people.

Father, if we love You we will follow You, help us love You and others as You love us.  Lord, we deny our will for Yours, give us the Christ-like courage to stand on Your Word, through all temptation and problems.  Father keep Your hedge of protection around us, so our enemies’ will not harm us; Father, bless our children and our children’s children from the crown of their heads to the souls of their feet.  Lord, give us the patient and perseverance of Job and allow You to be God in our lives.  Lord, provide us with a strong desire for Your Word and the wisdom and knowledge to understand the truth; and anoint us with the Holy Spirit to compel us to obey YOUR WORD.  In Jesus name Amen
