TOPIC: The Benefits Of Serving The Lord
Supernatural supply is the portion and possession of servants of God.
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 DAY: Supernatural supply is the portion and possession of servants of God.
Previously, we saw that love is key to service. Loving God is key to serving Him. If you love God passionately, you would be wholeheartedly involved in serving Him. You would be committed to service in the House of God which is the church if you are a lover of God.

Now, there are those who revolve around church but are never involved. They don’t know how things are happening in Church. They don’t know how the chairs are arranged, the toilets cleaned, or how the traffic is being controlled. They just come to church and return home. That is not a life of dedication to God.
If you are really dedicated to God, you would make your time, talents and resources available in the service of God.
Now, what are the benefits of serving the Lord?
- The blessing of supernatural supplies.
You shall serve the Lord your God and He shall bless your bread and water. (Exodus 23:25).
Supernatural supply is the portion and possession of servants of God.
- Divine health and vitality.
He shall take away sickness from the midst of you (Exodus 23:25)
God is committed to the health of those who are committed to His work.
- Supernatural fruitfulness.
None shall cast their young among you nor be barren… (Exodus 23:26).
This means, as you serve the Lord your God, you shall be fruitful. Fruitfulness is a portion of servants of God.
- Divine protection and preservation.
God will spare you if you serve Him (Malachi 3:17). You can’t be committed to God and be wasted by the devil.
My counsel is, make up your mind to be dedicated to God.
Remember this: Supernatural supply is the portion and possession of servants of God.
ASSIGNMENTS:
- Make up your mind to serve God wholeheartedly in order to access the blessing of service.
- Serve God joyfully and not grudgingly. Resist the temptation of eye service.
PRAYER: Lord, I receive the heart of total obedience and dedicated service to You. Help me to maximize the benefits of Kingdom service, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.

QUOTE: Let service to God and His Kingdom be the reason why you live. Culled from “15 KINGDOM STRATEGIES FOR SURVIVAL” by Dr Paul Enenche.
DAILY READING: Job 28-30
REFLECTION: Are you responsible for the working of anything in Church? Is there any difference your presence makes in God’s House? Do you exist to serve or you exist to be served?
PROPHETIC DECLARATION/WORD: The Lord release upon you, the Blessing of true service as you are committed to Him in Jesus’ Name.
