TOPIC: SERVICING TO BE SERVICED
SCRIPTURE: And ye shall serve the Lord your God, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy water; and I will take sickness away from the midst of thee.Exodus 23:25.
THOUGHT FOR THE DATY: Service is a guarantee for divine health, because to serve God is to be serviced by God.
The Scripture makes it clear that serving God is cure for affliction. Service is a guarantee of divine health, because to serve God is to be serviced by God. (Exodus 23:25).
When you press into God in dedication and service, He cleanses you of every sickness and disease in your life so you can serve Him without that distraction. He deals with anything that can constitute a hindrance to your service.
Let me illustrate this with a story. While growing up, I was the sickliest child among my siblings. I was always convulsing. Whenever I convulsed, my mother would run from wherever she was to give me attention. They had called her from the market on many occasions and she had to abandon what she was doing to come .and attend to me.
I was once admitted in the hospital at the age of twelve, and doctors could not diagnose the ailment. On the hospital bed, I could not eat for seven days, and almost placed permanently on drip. It was a terrible condition.
But the good news is, as I pressed into God in dedicated service, that condition disappeared.
Beloved, if there is anything distracting your life, they will disappear as you press into God in service.
My counsel is, be fully engaged for God; and God will deliver you from the distractions of adversity and infirmity.
If you give God your attention, He will deal with your affliction. If you give God your submission, He will deal with your frustration.
I decree wholeness of life for you as you make up your mind to serve God, in Jesus’ Name.
REMEMBER THIS: Service is a guarantee for divine health because to serve God is to be serviced by God.
ASSIGNMENTS:
- Make up your mind to serve God totally and fully.
- Deploy yourself and all you have to the service of God and His Kingdom.
PRAYER: Lord, I thank You for Your Word to me today. I receive the grace to serve You totally, and as I serve You LORD, I ask that You rid me of every sickness and disease, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.
