Being of use to the LORD is an honor coming from the Father alone, towards all who faithfully receive Him through the testimony of His Word declared for the Salvation of mankind. Living as Witnesses of the Truth who declare God's Word in love to all and are able to turn lives around for the better by changing the mindsets of men to remain more focused on the Heavenly Kingdom and the heritage destined for all who remain faithful to the end, makes us graciously deserving of the honor divinely given by the LORD our Father for perfecting individuals, building up the Body of Christ, and so that we may remain equipped for the work of the ministry (Is. 55:11, John 5:31, Eph. 4:11-12).
Therefore, there is no need for a Christian to honor him nor her-self before anyone as a true vessel of the only God, for Christ who commissioned us humbled Himself to serve and will definitely glorify His name in the lives of those who likewise empty themselves as exemplary figures raised up to overcome every test, temptation and cross to carry along the way (Acts 3:13, Phil. 2:7-11, Matt. 16:24 & 23:12).
PRAYER: In Jesus' Name, thank You, Gracious Father, for I am highly favored to serve in Your Vineyard, being chosen to testify of Your eternal existence. Please, help me to always glorify Your name, even as I'm honored to be a child of the King of Kings, called and enabled to help with the growth of your advancing Kingdom,
Amen.
From John 8:54
