SERVE LIKE A SON&NOT A SLAVE

    -As a BELIEVER in CHRIST and a Son of GOD,you are Already Delivered from the Bondage of Slavery and Toiling to Now Serve your Heavenly Father Without the Sense of LACK, INDEBTEDNESS AND DEPRIVATION.

                  *Romans 4:4 KJV
Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt.

       -When your Work and Service in the Kingdom of God is All About you, what you Can Do,and All you have Done,you will End up Bragging and telling God to See All you have Done for Him and how much He is Indebted to you or Owing you.

     -To Enjoy our Serving God,we Need to Settle it in our Heart that He is not Owing us Anything,but rather He Sent His Son JESUS CHRIST as an OVERPAYMENT for our Sins and the Sins of the Whole World.
     -Secondly,Because of JESUS,GOD is not Holding Back from us Any Good things of Life.

                  *Romans 8:32 KJV
He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?

     -Before the Cross of Christ, We were All Owing a DEBT we could not Pay,and after the Cross,JESUS Paid for us All the DEBT He did not Owe.

  @-Is your Service in the House of God all about Reminding God how much you have Done for Him,and How much He is Owing you?.
    -Having this Work Service Mentality,will hinder you from RECEIVING FREELY of All that Grace Has Already made Available for you.

    -You Don't Have to Serve in the House of God like the Senior Brother of the Prodigal Son who got Angry Because His Father killed a Fatted Calf to Celebrate the Return of His Lost Brother Back Home.

                     *Luke 15:25-28 KJV
Now his elder son was in the field: and as he came and drew nigh to the house, he heard musick and dancing.
[26] And he called one of the servants, and asked what these things meant.
[27] And he said unto him, Thy brother is come; and thy father hath killed the fatted calf, because he hath received him safe and sound.
[28] And he was angry, and would not go in: therefore came his father out, and intreated him.

    -Once God the Father Receives you Back Home from your Life of Sin and Disobedience,He Expects you to "START RECEIVING OF THE GOOD THINGS IN THE HOUSE" Praise the LORD.
               *"AS A Son of GOD,You must Stop Working to Deserve to Receive, Rather you must Simply Receive What is Already Given to You."

     -What Really is of Interest in this Story,is the Slavery Work Mentality of the Senior Brother that kept him in Lack, Insufficiency and Deprivation while living in the Midst of Overflowing Abundance,even though He was Working Hard in the Field.
    
    -In His Effort to Work and Labor to Get God to Give Him Something or Do Something for Him,He Could not Receive What was Already His to Enjoy.
    -He Came to the Father with a Slavery Mentality Asking and Demanding of the Father to Pay up the DEBT He is Owing Him for His Years of Service.

                 *Luke 15:29-31 KJV
And he answering said to his father, Lo, these many years do I serve thee, neither transgressed I at any time thy commandment: and yet thou never gavest me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends:
[30] But as soon as this thy son was come, which hath devoured thy living with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf.
[31] And he said unto him, Son, thou art ever with me, and all that I have is thine.

       -You ought to Worship and Serve God your Father with the Knowing He Has Already Given you Everything that Belongs to Him as your Right of Inheritance to Receive and Enjoy.

  @-Are You Still Serving in the House of God,and your Asking God to Heal you,Bless you,and Do this or that for you Because of the Service you have Offered and you are still Offering.
            -If that is your Case,Then any Reward you Receive,is not of GRACE, but of the Wages Paid you for the Service you have Rendered.

            -When you Insist on Working to Deserve to Receive,you will Naturally get Tired,Angry and frustrated when your not Receiving what you Desire of the Father.

                "WE DON'T LABOR TO GET GOD TO GIVE TO US OR DO SOMETHING FOR US"

        -ALL WE HAVE IS RECEIVED BY GRACE AND NOT BY WORKS.Praise God.
                          *Romans 11:6 KJV
And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then is it no more grace: otherwise work is no more work.

                   *Anyone Can Naturally Get Angry and Frustrated like the Brother of the Prodigal Son when you See People you think are Filthy, Undeserving and your Better than Receiving and Enjoying What God Has Freely Given.

            -ONLY GRACE Can Give you what your Work Mentality Cannot Give you and Make Happen in your Life.

              * "GRACE IS AN OVERPAYMENT THAT IS BEYOND WHAT YOU CAN EARN BY YOUR LABOR AND SWEAT."

               *Ecclesiastes 10:15 KJV
The labour of the foolish wearieth every one of them, because he knoweth not how to go to the city.

     -Apostle Paul Labored more Abundantly than they All Because He Knew what the GRACE OF CHRIST Had Already Made Available for Him,and out of this "I HAVE IT ALREADY MENTALITY" He Was Zealous to Do things for the Advancement of the Kingdom of God.

              *1 Corinthians 15:10 KJV
But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.

@-POINTS TO NOTE WHEN SERVING
        1.Always labor and Serve God Like you have Got it Already,and you will Always Enjoy what you Got.
             -Don't Labor to Get it when you Got it Already.Labor like you Got it.

        2.Always Serve Like a Son that Has it Already and not like a Worker that is Getting Paid for His Service.

        3.Always Serve knowing Your Days of Laboring,Toiling and Complaining is Over.All things are Now Yours.God is not Holding anything back from you.
               *1 Corinthians 3:21 KJV
Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are yours;

         4.Always Serve the Father Knowing in CHRIST,all His Promises are YES to you and Not NO.
                  *2Cor.1.20NIV" For no matter how many promises God has made, they are "Yes" in Christ. And so through him the "Amen" is spoken by us to the glory of God."

        -YOU CAN NOW RECEIVE FROM THE FATHER OF ALL YOU DESIRE THAT IS YOURS ALREADY IN CHRIST.

                         *Proverbs 13:12 KJV
Hope deferred maketh the heart sick: but when the desire cometh, it is a tree of life.

               REJOICE AND CELEBRATE THE GOODNESS AND COMPASSION OF THE FATHER,FOR YOUR DESIRE IS COME IN JESUS MIGHTY NAME.AMEN

               BE BLESSED AND PROSPER
