Who are You Serving Right Now?

 

 

 

 

 

I share this post with you, in hopes that you will quickly identify who you are serving. It can Only be 3 types of people throughout your life that you will serve.

YOU WILL SERVE A “Laban” As you serve for Laban, you will often feel unappreciative, unvalued, and like the low-man on the totem pole. You may feel overlooked, overworked, unapplauded, being played, pimped, hustled; and even bamboozled. Fact is: Your not there to be blessed but to serve and learn Humility. While serving Laban, you will learn how to be generally unconcerned about yourself, not being worried about what people think about you and learning to not care who gets the Glory, because you work unto the Lord and not for men. READ GENESIS 29 

YOU WILL SERVE A “Greasy Prophet”. When you’re serving the “Greasy Prophet”, you will receive motivation to serve thru manipulation. You will be told, “Thus saith the Lord”, even though the Lord didn’t say anything. You will receive a prophecy that always seems to agree with what you want. This is done mainly to keep you working. When you’re dealing with the Greasy Prophet, your struggles will be swept under the rug and will not be addressed until you disagree with his agenda; then all hell breaks loose. READ Isaiah 30

FINALLY, YOU WILL SERVE A “BARNABAS” As you serve Barnabas, it will be nothing like what you’re used to. You see, Barnabas will lay his credibility on the line for you to be embraced by individuals who you never would have been introduced to otherwise. Barnabas is there for the LONG HAUL, he will ride with you until you’re capable of doing your own thing. READ ACTS 9

Here’s the dilemma we all are in; we must be able to properly identify which person we are serving; if not, we will complain, murmur and scream, “God this isn’t fair!” Even worse, we will run our Barnabas off or mismanage the time that we are allotted with him.   Bottom line is KNOW WHO YOU SERVE!
