Bibledoorajar: In His Service

In His service implies a great many things. But most importantly it implies implicit trust in the God of the Heavens that He will supply. We are just like Moses, aren't we? We will trust in almost anything more than the Living God. It must be a human trait because we all deal with it. But God makes it plain over and over in the Bible that His ways are not our ways. Human preparations may help us accomplish something in this world, but service for God calls for Godly preparations. I often think of Jesus and how He prayed so much. He said He could do nothing except by the Father. There is a service that is only meaningful to God that is God prepared. Only when Moses denied himself, did God anoint him for service. It is His glory and His alone, that accomplishes Kingdom service.

Moses and Aaron will be going into the courts of Pharoah in His service. The courts of Pharoah with all earthly ability to make things happen. It is a powerful picture of what we all must face in this world if we are in His service. Will it all go without difficulty? No, but it will accomplish God's intentions if we remain in His service. Not all service is easy and frightening things can happen.  The Bible speaks of martyrs; servants who gave their lives for His service. Most were not treated justly or fairly by the world, but God's agenda was addressed. And, according to the book of Revelation, God hears the cries of those martyrs and has prepared justice for them. Whether we live or die in His service, we win. God wins. The kingdom wins. Implicit trust in God's plans. It's THE PLAN.

"My God will supply all your needs.
According to His riches in glory."
                               Philippians 4:19

Paul, the writer of the above verse should know. He was a recipient and look what was accomplished for the Kingdom.
