There is power in service! 

13 Apr There is power in service! 

Although it is difficult to understand God fully because His ways are higher than our ways, some characteristics of His are noticeable.

🎯Powerful and as fearsome as He is, He has a great sense of humour.

💥For example, in the story of Elijah, who was sent to a brook to be fed by birds during a famine he had decreed, he was later sent to a widow at Zarephath to provide his meals after the brook dried up.

💥Strangely, the widow was a poor woman who was about to cook her last meal and die from the famine.

💥So, obviously the encounter was to benefit her more.

😉For Elijah, it was an opportunity to serve.

🎯We know we are rising higher in life when we begin to help others; when we become a blessing to others.

🎯Promotion comes with responsibility; and to lead is to serve.

🎯So ministers of God are promoted to serve others and not for them to lord it over others; anointing is for service; and with service comes greater promotion.

💥Elisha was a successful farmer with his father when Elijah chose him as a servant.

💥And he served so diligently that he succeeded his master as the prophet and also a father of nations.

🎯For every child of God, there is the potential for greatness, which is triggered by service or even crisis.

🎯There is something in children of God far bigger than they know.

🎯That power is manifested when we surrender to God to serve for Him to dwell is us with all His power.
