The slave of God (Part 5)
Today I finish this teaching "The slave of God" but if you have not read the other four parties, it will be difficult to understand this fifth part. It will be hard for you to understand how a child of God can be called "slave of God." I did not invent this term but I have found it in the Word of God where Paul said: "But now having been set free from sin, and having become slaves of God, you have your fruit to holiness, and the end, everlasting life"(Romans 6: 22).
In summary, a slave of God totally depends on Him. He cannot decide anything without considering the will of his Master (God) and his language, his company, his attitude, his dreams and goals must change completely according to the wishes of his Master. The good news for a born again Christian is that his Master is also his Father; that is why his treatment is different from a simple slave because in addition to being the slaves of God, we are also his children.
I finished the fourth part by saying that God has already written a biography on your life and He wrote it before you were born. Normally the biography speaks about someone's past life but the biography of God speaks about your future. That is the revelation that King David got and we read it in Psalm 139: 16 where he said: "Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed. And in Your book they all were written, the days fashioned for me, when as yet there were none of them ". It is clear that God has a book and in that book were written all the days fashioned for him before one of them existed i.e. God wrote David's life before he was born. This does not mean that God had written all David's sins but He foresaw his weaknesses and his sins and had already prepared a way of repentance.
My brother, my sister, God knew you before you were born and He knows already every day that you will live on this earth. He knows all the problems you will meet and not only He knows the challenges to come, but he prepares in advance the solution for you. Your life is already written in the book of God and all that He is asking you is to submit yourself entirely to his will as a slave submits to the will of his master. The more we resist God, the more we miss an amount of our blessings but the more we obey, the more we live the wonderful plan He has prepared for us according to his biography found in his book.
If you read this message and you have not yet accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior, it means that you are still a slave of sin and this is the time to switch and become a slave of God and your life will no longer be the same because it will be the beginning of your journey to heaven.
May God be praised for His word
