TOPIC: SERVICE PROVOKED BY LOVE
Love for God will make you do something for God.
SCRIPTURE: And ye shall serve the Lord your God, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy water; and I will take sickness away from the midst of thee. Exodus 23:25.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Love for God will make you do something for God.
You are welcome to the Month of May in our year of Release, Recovery and Replication. In this month, God shall perfect all that concerns you.
It is important to know that God expects every child of His to be dedicated to Him. God wants His children to seek first, His Kingdom and His righteousness (Matthew 6:33).
Now, one dimension of dedication is commitment to Kingdom service.
Commitment to Kingdom service means existence as an instrument in the Hands of God. It is existence as a difference maker. You don’t just attend church services but you make a difference in the House of God. You exist as someone God can count on. And it is not possible for anyone to claim to be committed or dedicated to God and not be interested in the work of God.
I learned that one of the five love languages is service. That is to say, when some people want to show their love, one of the ways they show it is by being of service to the person they love.
I remember when my children were much younger; whenever I came home from work, they would run around me wanting to pull off my shoes and my tie for me. They just wanted to show their father how much they loved him.
In the same way, if we love our Father in Heaven, service is one of the ways to express it. Love for God will make you do something for Him. Love for God is a basis for dedicated service to God.
Beloved, make up your mind to love God and be actively involved in the things of God by way of dedicated service.
Remember this: Love for God will make you do something for God.
