Servant Of God
You are a servant of God (1 Peter 2:16), and that is your identity in Christ.
Yet, what does it mean to be a servant of God?
The worldly are largely small-minded and live in their minuscule world in their heads. They love to gossip and move around spreading fear and negative talk. Most cannot think above carnal standards and societal conditioning.
They remain bound by evil spirits like bitterness, anger, and an overall pessimistic view of life. Even poke their noses into matters they don't have any understanding of. They divide other relationships and pollute their own. Living in a recycled mess of emotions.
A servant of God is free from spiritual bindings and thrives on doing good. He is unfettered by what others think or says and lives in absolute obedience to Jesus.
Ten qualities in believers or servants of God;
(1 Peter 2)
Honest conduct among non-believers.
Glorify God through good works
Remain submitted to the laws of the land
Honour all men
Love fellowship
Walk in the fear of God
Honour leaders in high positions
Like Jesus, keep their lips from speaking guile
Suffer patiently in Christ
Stay committed to pursuing righteousness
There is so much to unravel in the Word of God. Every verse and Word is rich in spiritual food. Renew your calling, dear believer. You are a servant of God. Desire His heart and let Christ be glorified in and through you daily.
Maranatha, Praise God, and Amen.
