SERVING UNDER A LEADER SUNDAY JUNE 11
TEXT: NUMBERS 8: 9 – 11
Key verse: ‘Take the Levites instead of all the firstborn among the children of Israel and the cattle of the Levites instead of their cattle; and the Levites shall be mine: I am the LORD.’ Numbers 3: 45
We are serving God, but we are serving under a leader. It is the will of God that men serve under leaders. If you are too great to serve under leaders, you have missed Divine plan. If you lack the humility to humble yourself under leaders, you have missed it. You have not come to Christ, or else, the grace you received has gone away. Otherwise, Christ is humble. He was born in a humble place. Christ submitted Himself to men to lead Him for some time, and you are too big, you are too great, you are too high. Forget life! Going to heaven is very, very sensitive. Come, you have a ministry, be very careful that you don’t take over the direction of your ministry by yourself. You will not make it because man cannot lead himself. It is God that does the leading, and if God does the leading, many things about that ministry, you have not yet known. Be very sensitive because He is leading you on the paths of righteousness for His name’s sake. Where He is guiding you, He is more interested in righteousness not in achievement. He is more interested in your holiness than in your achievement, so He guides you in the paths of righteousness for His name’s sake. Follow Him. Be sure that you are not stubborn to Divine guidance. Be sure that you seek His mind, know it well and follow Him as He has told you.
As we see this done in the world, so is it also required in the Church, that there should be leaders. In the world, people serve in hierarchies, people are under Presidents, we are under Presidents, and then there are other leaders as well under them, who are leading people, and the nation goes on in the purpose of God. God lays claim to you. Actually, are you serving God? To serve our God, you must be clean. Be ye clean that bear the vessels of the Lord. Clean in your mouth. You are not a liar. Clean in your heart. You don’t hate people there. You don’t keep malice there. You don’t bear grudges there. You are not lusting after people, men and women there. You are not proud in your heart. Lies should be cleansed out from your tongue, out of your lips. Evil, pollution, pride should be cleansed out of your life.
Thought for the day: Have the mind of Christ
Song for the day: He that is down needs fear no fall, he that is low no pride….
Bible reading for the day: 2 Chronicles 34-36; John 19:1-22

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern Text: Mark 16: 17 – 20 Wednesday May 8th Key verse: Obadiah 17 “Upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.” God has prepared to direct us on holy service unto Himself. He tells us when the lives and services of people are corrupt because from the heart of men proceed the works they do. When people are righteous and holy, their service is also righteous and holy. Hence, the word says, make the people holy then their service will be holy, so if you accept to live a life of holiness, then the fruit of your service will be holy. So, it is very important to accept the life of holiness because the God that made you is holy; He will give you grace to be holy. You just make up your mind to be holy. Do not accept that no man can be holy; then Jesus came for nothing, Jes...
