*Word of the day* 📖 Isaiah 42:1-9 “Here is my servant, whom I uphold,
    my chosen one in whom I delight;
I will put my Spirit on him,
    and he will bring justice to the nations. 2  He will not shout or cry out,
    or raise his voice in the streets. 3  A bruised reed he will not break,
    and a smoldering wick he will not snuff out.
In faithfulness he will bring forth justice; 4      he will not falter or be discouraged
till he establishes justice on earth.
    In his teaching the islands will put their hope.” God chose this nation among all the nations of the earth to be His people. He was not just choosing them to be receiving of His blessings. He chose them to be His servant. He had a task for them. The Jewish nation as a whole was supposed to be a light to the world, teaching others about God. However, as a nation, they did not fulfill this purpose. They failed. *If we’re called to be a faithful servant of God, we get to see what it is that Jesus did and what we’re expected to do, these are few examples of what being a servant of God entails:* • Jesus came to do His Father’s will.
• He did not come to be served but to serve
• Teaching
• Healing
• Busy to the point of not eating. His family thought he was crazy because he was ministering instead of eating.
• Lowering himself. Washing the disciples’ feet.
• He did all these things with a good attitude and without complaining.
• He served by giving His life. Jesus is the Creator. Before coming to earth, He was in heaven on the throne with thousands of angels at His service. He deserved to be served. That is His right. If Jesus, who deserved to be served, lowered himself to become a servant, how much more should we? It is not our right to be served, but to be servants of God and serve him and his children 🙏🏽
