Your reasonable service [ March 24,2023 ]

Daily Word 🇬🇭

Your reasonable service
Psalm 23:5
Thou preparest a table before me…..thou anointed my head with oil my cup runneth over.

In my opinion, “Your reasonable service” to God is the least you can do for God to show your appreciation for all He has done for you.

In the verse above, the Psalmist describes some of the wonderful things God has done for Him. God has blessed Him abundantly ( prepared a table for him) and has prepared him for service ( anointed my head with oil). Being prepared for service to God is an honorable thing.

Psalm 27:4

……to behold the beauty of the Lord and to inquire in His temple…

In the verse above , the Psalmist’s “reasonable service” is to dedicate his whole life to serve God and to ask for His direction in all his endeavors.

Romans 12:1
I beseech therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service

This verse from the new testament says our reasonable service to the Lord is to offer our bodies as a living sacrifice onto God.

This means we should submit our will to God, put God first in all we do and obey his commands no matter the cost.
God be with you

How can I apply the word to my life?
1. Seek to obey and do the will of God at all times.

Prayer
Let this song be your prayer

My heart’s desire is to serve you Lord
My heart’s desire is to serve you Lord
So Lord I pray, I pray
I pray, I pray
Baptize me with the Pentecost fire
Amen
