Meditate On
…the Son of Man did not come to
be served, but to serve…
Mark 10:45
Take
From Jesus All That You Need
I want to share a little secret with you today. Jesus
said of Himself, “…the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve…”
Jesus Christ, the Son of God, did not come to be ministered to, but to
minister. My friend, when God visits your home, He does not come for you to
give to Him. He comes for you to take from Him. This is a little secret to
intimacy with God.
Jesus in His inexhaustible supply and divine fullness is
here for you to take from. Take from Him your miracle for your body. Take from
Him wisdom for your confusion. Take from Him peace to guard your heart and mind
from the stress of modern living. He comes before you in all His fullness, full
of love and strength for you to draw from.
Why do you think that the Lord referred to Himself as the
bread of life? What is bread for? Does anyone take a loaf of bread and say, “Do
you not notice the different hues of brown on this bread?” You can talk all you
like about the glories of the bread, but as long as you don’t feed on it, it
cannot nourish and strengthen you!
Just as bread is to be partaken, Jesus wants you to
partake of His love and His grace. So draw from Him. Draw on His power. Draw on
His love. Draw on His glory. Consume Him. He loves it when His children take
from Him, depend on Him and hence experience good success!
