RESTORATION TODAY
WEDNESDAY 15TH MARCH 2017
BY PASTOR DR. G.O. OLUTOLA JP.
THEME: GODLY SERVANTS.
If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; also ought to wash one another's feet. For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you. John 13: 14 15.
Godly servants are all around us, but sadly, we often take them for granted. The faithful service of righteous men and women will bring untold blessings to those whom they serve.
For instance, Joseph's story reveals a consistent thread: Wherever he was, the people he served prospered. Potiphar was certainly not a God-fearing man, yet even he recognized that prosperity came to him because of his slave (Genesis 39: 2 - 6). Likewise Daniel, whose service to Babylonian kings included interpreting visions (Daniel 2: 4 & 5). In both examples, powerful leaders were blessed by the actions of their servants; and more than that, they came away with an awareness of the living God.
They also participated in the young men's success by offering them increased responsibilities and greater opportunities to serve (Genesis 39: 1 6; Daniel 2: 46 ? 48; 5: 29). Find the people in your life who have the gift of godly service. Spend time with them, serving and working together for God's glory. If you maltreat someone doing servants work, you'll cut yourself off from a relationship that could change your life.
Instead, run toward these people, stand beside them, and ask, How can I participate in serving with you??
