Prolog ~ “As each one has received a gift, minister it to one
another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God” (1
Peter 4:10).
In this post we look at: 3
ESSENTIAL Ws OF GODLY SERVICE.
Working
For His Name
~ “Beloved, you do faithfully
whatever you do for the brethren and for strangers, who have borne witness of
your love before the church. If you send
them forward on their journey in a manner worthy of God, you will do well, because
they went forth for His name’s sake, taking
nothing from the Gentiles. We therefore
ought to receive such, that we may become fellow
workers for the truth” (3 John 5-8).
Witnesses
For His Truth
~ “And being assembled together
with them, He commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the
Promise of the Father, ‘which,’ He said, ‘you have heard from Me; for John
truly baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit not
many days from now.’ Therefore, when
they had come together, they asked Him, saying, ‘Lord, will You at this time restore
the kingdom to Israel?’ And He said to
them, ‘It is not for you to know times or seasons which the Father has put in
His own authority. But you shall receive
power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and
Samaria, and to the end of the earth’” (Acts 1:4-8).
Watching
For His Coming
~ “But of that day and hour no
one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the
Father. Take heed, watch and pray; for
you do not know when the time is. It is
like a man going to a far country, who left his house and gave authority to his
servants, and to each his work, and commanded the doorkeeper to watch. Watch
therefore, for you do not know when the master of the house is coming — in
the evening, at midnight, at the crowing of the rooster, or in the morning — lest,
coming suddenly, he find you sleeping. And
what I say to you, I say to all: Watch!” (Mark 13:32-37).
