True Love Always Serves
Hebrews 6:10For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love….
Beloved, rendering the labour of love is a debt every child of God owes Him. That he did not allow you to die in your sins should make you serve him out of a heart filled with love and gratitude.
Paul was commending the Thessalonians church in I Thessalonians 1:3 “Remembering without ceasing your work of faith, and labour of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ…. “ In other words, they served and worked for God not just because of the love they had for God. They did not mind the inconveniences they had to go through in working for God, They loved God. Complaining and murmuring while serving God will rob you of your reward from God.
Take note of the following truths on serving God with love.
- True love always serves : True love stretches, sacrifices, goes the extra mile. True love always invest labour and service despite the cost. Jacob proved his love for Rachael by serving her father Laban for fourteen years in order to marry her. Wherever there is love, there will be service
- All service in the house of God must be offered with love: it is only loving service that will be remembered and rewarded by God.
- The labour of love is offered to express sold out love for God: this kind of service is offered selflessly without shame or pride. This is where you go the extra mile in service to God. Loving service is radical service.
Beloved, refuse to offer God superficial service. Make up your mind today to serve God with a heart filled with true love and devotion.
Prayer : Lord, I thank You for saving me and making me Your child; I resolve today, to serve You with love in Jesus name ...
