Dream of dreams

"But while he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take to you Mary your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit." Matthew 1.20

When one is generated by the Holy Spirit, he is holy, pure, has character, is true, is correct, flee from evil, is perfect in the eyes of the Father, is faithful, loves God, loves his neighbor, forgives, is patient, fears God, he is a new creature, a servant, obedient, his thoughts match the thoughts of God, his word is yes, yes, no, no, and he serves Jesus with all of his heart, with all his strength and with all understanding .
But when he is generated by flesh, nothing of this happens.

The letter kills

"...who also made us sufficient as ministers of the new covenant, not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life." 2 Corinthians 3.6

The true servants of the Holy Spirit of God transmit Spirit to those who are thirsty for the Spirit.
The other "servants" are concerned with imparting empty knowledge of life that imposes deadly burdens. One must be born of the Spirit to have this discernment.

The servant

 “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven." Matthew 7.21

The service of a servant is not limited only to some miraculous deeds in the name of Jesus. For what good is to perform miracles but do not obey the Word of God?
What really matters is not to do but to be.
Nobody is a servant by half. Either he is a servant in full or he is not.

Watch out

"Watch therefore, for you do not know what hour your Lord is coming." Matthew 24.42

 These are simple but profound words. They bear the personal responsibility of the servant. Should he be distracted or relax in the faith, his soul will be doomed to eternal punishment, along with all non-servants.

FIRSTFRUITS


"Honor the Lord with your possessions and with the firstfruits of all your increase, so your barns will be filled with plenty and your vats will overflow with new wine."       Proverbs 3.9-10
Honor is the link between children and their parents, husbands and wives, servants and masters.
Only those who are born of the Spirit acknowledge, through their firstfruits and offerings, that Jesus Christ is the Lord of their lives.

THE WILL OF THE FATHER

"Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven."     Matthew 7.21
You must be a servant in order to do the will of the Lord.
What good will it do to serve Him halfheartedly?
What good will it do to try to please Him by being half a servant?
Imagine what would happen in a marriage if a husband only gave half of himself to his wife and a wife only gave half of herself to her husband?
Who would accept to live in this situation?
Jesus is only the Lord of those who submit their live's entirely to Him.

Whose Servant?


"Do you not know that to whom you present yourselves slaves to obey, you are that one’s slaves whom you obey, whether of sin leading to death, or of obedience leading to righteousness?" Romans 6:16

There are two masters in this world: of life and of death. The life of each individual reflects the Lord they serve.
The devil gives his servants a life of suffering and pain. The Lord Jesus however, gives His servants a life of abundance.
Therefore, the quality of one's life depends on the lord he serves.

The Voice of the Spirit


Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying: “Whom shall I send, and who will go for Us?” Isaiah 6.8

 Hell is never satisfied. It’s increasingly hungry for lost souls.
Meanwhile, in heaven, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are searching for servants on the earth who through Him will go after those who are lost.
Who will go for Us?
One must be especial, more than a servant – hand-picked – in order to give up personal projects and embrace the projects of God.

Uprightness

Now if you walk before Me as your father David walked, in integrity of heart and in uprightness... I Kings 9.4

Integrity and uprightness are fundamental ingredients for a relationship between the human being and God. This is the difference between those who serve Him and thos who don't.

Father, Son, and Holy Spirit

"Behold! My Servant whom I uphold, my Elect One in whom My soul delights! I have put My Spirit upon Him; He will bring forth justice to the Gentiles." Isaiah 42:1

This profecy refers to the Servant-Son for His great sacrificial mission. He fulfilled His task and left disciples so they could continue His Work. Today, the servant-sons are spread throughout the Earth, with the same anointing of the Firstborn Servant-Son.

Trees

"And even now the ax is laid to the root of the trees. Therefore every tree which does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire."
Matthew 3:10
God knows the intention of the heart of those who serve Him. If it's good or bad, time will tell. It is however impossible to pretend to serve Him. Soon, very soon it is detached from His Body.

Security

"Where there is no counsel, the people fall; but in the multitude of counselors there is safety."

Proverbs 11:14

You'll only find true guidance in the Word of God. The servant who practices and teaches it, is safe.

Be like

"BIt is enough for a disciple that he be like his teacher, and a servant like his master."

Matthew 10:25

In order to serve, Jesus had to empty Himself and assume the form of servant. Those who want to follow Him must also empty themselves and humbly assume the form of servants. Otherwise, they'll continue the same kind of life.

Wash the feet

"If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet."

John 13: 14

Jesus did not wash His disciples' feet to show humbleness, but to teach them how to behave with one another. The servant does not question, but obey.
