Word of Hope for Today by Bro. Rolly Custodio
SERVANT LEADER’S ATTITUDE
(PART-1)
Today’s Insight
It’s a
strange thing: Jesus opened the doors of Heaven wide for His disciples, showed
them the free wonders and mysteries of God, the wealth of really knowing Him.
They seemed to get it. But then they got a taste for glory, and not in a good
way. In Mark 10, the
brothers James and John started to like the whole getting honored by others
business, and put in a request for a couple of shiny thrones.
‘No’,
said Jesus, ‘not so among you.’ It might be the way of the world to climb an
increasingly golden ladder, but with Jesus’ people, the glitter and the power
only comes through the cross. With Him we are to treat other people as worth
more attention than ourselves.
Want to
do something amazing in Jesus’ eyes? Give the old dear from church help with
moving her old fridge. Want to bring miracles and wonders into your circle of
influence? Take time to chat with the kid everyone thinks is weird.
The
greatest leader ever didn’t come to earth to live in a palace or win all the
glory; He lived out Galatians
5:13 (NLT): ‘Don’t use
your freedom to satisfy your sinful nature [looking inward to you and you
only]. Instead, use your freedom to serve one another in love.’
Life
Application: This isn’t just Jesus ‘teaching us a
lesson’ before we get those crowns for being heirs of the King. God is showing
us what works the best for us. Look out for those who could do with kindness
from you today.
Parallel Verses: Num 32:25 – 33:56, Matt 13:10-23, Ps 134, Pro 4:5-13
Today’s Prayer
Heavenly Father thank you for your
Word today. Lord, I come before you with a humble heart. Lord I thank you for the
Word because it is truth and if we walk on this truth our integrity will never
question. Lord empowers me to stand strong in my faith that I may represent to
somebody as your ambassador ready to speak your Word and to show the Truth to
anyone. Lord helps me to share your Word with integrity to show up also in my
action so that others will be blessed of what I for your glory. In Jesus Name,
Amen!
Prayer for Salvation
Lord I admit I am a sinner I repent of
all my sins and I receive you into my heart as my personal Lord and Savior
Amen. If you mean that prayer above from the bottom of your heart you are now
saved. It is God’s Word promise in John 3:16 that if you trust His Son Jesus
you will not die but you will have Eternal Life. Welcome to the family of God.
In order to grow in your faith with God please do these consistently starting
today; 1. Pray always 2. Read your Bible Daily 3. Attend Church Services
Regularly 4. Attend Prayer Meeting, Bible Study, Church Seminars and make God
first place in your life with your talents and finances 5. Lastly, witness
Jesus to others that they may receive Eternal Life also.
