 “These servants of the Lord did not sit on their laurels and become rotting relics. These early disciples followed their Lord’s command and did great exploits for their King as servants of all.”

Daniel 11:32
…but the people who know their God shall be strong and carry out great exploits.

The great violinist, Nicolo Paganini, willed his marvellous violin to Genoa –  the city of his birth – but only on condition that the instrument never be played again. It was an unfortunate condition, for it is a peculiarity of wood that if it is used and handled, it shows little wear. As soon as it is discarded, it can become infested and begin to decay. The exquisite violin became worm-eaten in its beautiful case, valueless except as a relic. The rotting instrument is a reminder that a life withdrawn from all service to others loses its meaning.

Jesus reminds us that if we desire to be great in the kingdom of God, we need to be prepared to be servants. A servant is someone who expresses submission and duty to serve another person, to his credit and wellbeing. Jesus is our Lord and we are his servants. In Christ, we serve one another as a duty of our service of him. As much as we love our Lord, we love those whom he places on our track of life, to serve.

When we examine the lives of those to whom Jesus gave the instruction to be servants, we note that they all progressed to become great people of influence whose lives and service still impact our lives today. In their humble service, they carried out great exploits. Jesus did say, “He who is greatest among you shall be your servant.” These servants of the Lord did not sit on their laurels and become rotting relics. These early disciples followed their Lord’s command and did great exploits for their King as servants of all.

God-tracking is performing great exploits with a servant heart.

“I know, in you, I will do great exploits for my King with heart of a servant.”

“Dear Lord Jesus, thank you that you came to be a servant of God and give your life for me. Dear Lord, forgive me for any pride or arrogance in my heart. I choose now to humble myself before you and my fellow man, to be a servant of all. I know, in you, I will do great exploits for my King with heart of a servant. Amen.”

“If you have acknowledged Jesus Christ as your Lord and have surrendered your life to him, then you can be sure that he will give his angels charge over you.”

Exodus 23:20
“Behold, I send an Angel before you to keep you in the way and to bring you into the place which I have prepared.”

Scripture makes it clear that the angels are God’s ministering spirits, given charge to minister to you and me who will inherit salvation. That is, God created these amazing beings to serve us according to God’s purposes. Angles are given orders concerning us to guard us and physically intervene in our circumstances to ensure our safety and the execution of God’s perfect will.

Some years back my wife Karen, my daughter Kerryn and I were touring the Greek Isles. We hired a small car to explore Naxos. It was a lovely day. As we circumnavigated the small island, we ended up on a very narrow two-way road with a rock face to the left of the road and a long drop to the right. Coming round a bend we were confronted by a large agricultural tractor on our side of the road, headed directly at us at 40 miles per hour. The tractor was overtaking a large truck, which was on the opposite side of the road. Here I was, with my wife and daughter in the car, facing a large vehicle bearing down towards us. I could not pass the truck to the left because of the rock face and if I swerved right to avoid the tractor in front of me, we would surely fall off the drop to the right. I swerved right. There was no room for our car to fit the narrow shoulder of the road. A second later I swerved back again onto the road. We passed the oncoming tractor safely. We should have fallen down that precipice. Undoubtedly the two right wheels of our car passed off the edge of the road. Yet, we were safe. Angels? Probably. He shall give his angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways.

If you have acknowledged Jesus Christ as your Lord and have surrendered your life to him, then you can be sure that he will give his angels charge over you. They are ministering spirits sent to minister to those who will inherit salvation. They will keep you in your way and bring you safely into the place which the Lord has prepared for you.

God-tracking is confidence in his angelic guard.

“Dear Lord, give your angels charge over me.”

“Dear Lord, I praise and thank you for your ministering spirits, the angels. I praise you that you have given them charge over me and my loved ones to guard us on our daily walk. I do not worship or pray to your angels but I do acknowledge their involvement in my life. Dear Lord, give your angels charge over me. Amen.”
