A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Getting Our Attitude In Action!"

Good Morning Everyone,
 
Philippians 2: 5-7 Says, “Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery TO BE EQUAL WITH GOD: But MADE HIMSELF OF NO REPUTATION, and TOOK UPON HIM THE FORM OF A SERVANT, and was made in the likeness of men.”
 
Jesus Christ, the Son of God, became a servant. He took the servant’s role. Yet in our Christian Church today, there are many people who do not want the lowly positions of the servant. They want an exalted position of recognition and importance. But to have the mind of Christ is to have the humility and obedience of a servant.
 
Having the Attitude of a servant is of vital importance. But because of the way some people were raised, it is hard for them to understand and adapt to having the attitude of a servant.They are afraid that if they do, it will put them right back into the low state they were before they were saved.
 
This happens In the devil’s Kingdom, under his evil tyranny, but not in the Kingdom of God being under the King of Kings.... God’s Kingdom is ruled by faith and Love. The rule of a tyrant and enemy Satan is a rule of hate, distrust, and unbelief. In Satan’s kingdom, the individual is nothing.  But under God’s rule when we become servants, we actually become someone! God Himself lifts us up together, and we are seated in heavenly places in Christ Jesus. Eph. 2: 6.... Selah.
 
There are Christians who quote Mark 11: 23 and 24. But nothing happens... They wonder why the Word isn’t working for them... Often it is because of something they are holding in their hearts( grudges, bitterness, unforgiveness- you know.... We must realize that we cannot move into the area of Great Faith without walking in the Love of God and in Complete Obedience to His Word.
 
Remember, the Bible doesn’t say that when you’re obedient, you will eat the good of the land. It says you will eat the good of the land when you are willing and obedient. Selah.
 
So, this week end, get willing! You must confess this and get your heart to agree: “Lord, I will obey You! I will serve You and I will serve the Body of Christ, I want to follow Jesus’ example and serve YOU in Humble Obedience all the days of my life!” Enjoy your week end.....
 
At your work station today: A servant will do what his master tells him to do. Smile
 
Father, in the name of Jesus, we commit this day to You. We deposit it into Your charge- entrusting everything that people speak, hear and do into Your protection and care. Holy One we are listening for Your counsels and promises of Your unmerited favor.  We pray Your Word will build up the people and cause them to realize that they are joint heirs with Jesus; and Your Word is alive and full of power!
 
Thank You Lord, Your Word is active, operative, energizing, and effective, being sharper than any two-edged sword. We believe that this day, every persons needs will be met spiritually, physically, mentally, and financially in Jesus name. We believe that all the earth’s people will know that the Lord is God and there is no other! Hallelujah!”
“We Have Come To Do Our Father’s Will”
