The
lord, my genie, I shall be served… (my desires, my wants, my esteem, my honor)
because I rule my own destiny.
or
The
Lord, my God, I shall not want… (I am Your bond-servant, may Your will be done
in my life, it is my desire and my joy to honor and exalt You) because You are
faithful and Your loving-kindness lasts forever.
Does your life reveal an attitude that the Lord is
there to serve you…..or is it truly your heart's desire to live a life that is reflective
and indicative of a bond-servant of the Lord?
Holy Spirit fill us, empower us, guide us and lead
us to be humble bond-servants of the living Lord…
Phillippians 2:3-8 Do nothing from selfishness or empty
conceit, but with humility of mind regard one another as more important than
yourselves; do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also
for the interests of others.
Have this attitude in yourselves which was also in Christ
Jesus, who, although He existed in the form of God, did not regard equality with
God a thing to be grasped, but emptied Himself, taking the form of a
bond-servant, and being made in the likeness
of men. Being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself by becoming
obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.
