YOU ARE CREATED FOR SERVICE

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AMEN.

SATURDAY 19TH MARCH

YOU ARE CREATED FOR SERVICE 
TEXT: Luke 10: 30 – 37
Key verse: John 6: 9 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, saith unto him, There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many?
Man is created for God's service and to worship Him. He created Eve to serve Adam and Adam to serve Him. In Christ, we are recreated for His service. 2 Corinthians 5:17; "Therefore if any man is in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things have become new."  In Christ, you are a new creature. You need to serve in the new things now. You are here for service; to serve God and man. 
The call to Christian service is a call to serve God and men. Jesus said, I do the will of my Father which is in heaven (John 8: 29), which is service to God. All that thou has given to me I have kept except the son of perdition (John 17: 12). That is man service. Do that which will give God glory. Anything you will do to God, man and society do it well. That is the purpose of your existence. The little boy with five loaves and two fishes was there for service; he released those items to serve God and man.
The purpose of service is to recover the wounded man. Our text for today showed the service of the Good Samaritan:
1. He had compassion on him. If you have compassion, you will serve. You will both serve God and man. Develop a compassionate heart for the wounded. Many are spiritually wounded, go and heal them. Speak words of comfort to them. Take actions of comfort. 
2. He poured in oil and wine. Use your materials and spend your resources for evangelism 
3. He set him on his beast. Learn to suffer for people; be identified with suffering, the unemployed, the unmarried, the sick, the barren, etc… 
4. He brought him to an inn. Provide security and home to those in predicaments; 
5. He took care of him:
Ensure you provide food and clothing to brethren; If this can be done to a stranger, what about us that have known each other. Our Services to God is all the days of our lives. God saved you to serve Him. Do not allow anything to remove Christian service from you. The olive tree was to receive promotion but rejected it because it will rob God of His service and glory. Give up that honour that will keep you from serving God. Poverty and wretchedness must not tamper with your services to God and men. God brought you here to graduate you as a true Christian for the world to learn from.

Thought for today: Be faithful in your service to God and man

Song for the day: Serving the living God…
Bible reading for the day:
Deuteronomy 33-35; Luke 1:24-56

For taking your time to study remain blessed. August Tuesday 27th TOPIC: CORRECT WATER BAPTISM TEXT: Mark 16:15-16 KEY VERSE: Matthew 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. The believer requires water baptism. The baptism that Jesus commanded is in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. It is done by immersion in water because the three Persons are One. In Acts of the Apostles, the people were baptizing in the name of Jesus. They used the phrase “in the name of Jesus” to indicate that the baptism was carried out as authorized by Jesus, and the baptism authorized by Jesus is that which is done in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. It is not to say that they dip people in water and say, “I baptize you in the name of Jesus.” The name of Jesus cannot represent the Godhead. The Father is not Jesus, the Holy Spirit is not Jesus, Jesus is God who be
