JESUS CAME TO SERVE

Use time while you still have it. As a young person serve the LORD with vigour.
Leave your evil ways. The devil derails you using simple tactics. He finds a
tiny ten - degree angle and then begins to expand that angle so that you grow
further and further from God.
Back in the day in Swaziland, everybody that wanted to study at the University
of Swaziland had an opoortunity. Nowadays things ahave changed and intake is
lower. In the gospel the chances of people getting saved are slimmer.
Matthew 20:28
Jesus did not come so that people would serve Him. He did not come to lay
down the law about how much people pay for His car, housing, rental and food
allowance. He did not come to take our potatoes, but to give to us. When we
offer, we ought not think He is poor. He owns cattle on a thousand hills and
owns silver and gold.
I once was in the dating game. I was invited by God to give up my beautiful
girlfriend and she seemed like a huge price to me at the time. Jesus did not
come to take what you treasure. He will simply take away your fool and give
you an even better fool.
a similar situation is where a pastor was preaching some years ago and the Holy
Spirit instructed me to give a certain pastor my VW. Jesus did not come to be
served. Some preachers have personal ushers and armor - bearers. Jesus did
not come to be served by us. He washed His disciples' feet. He has not come
to be ministered to but to minister.
God will anoint you and send you to preach the gospel and in doing so He is not
doing it for you to be feared and praised. You are not to be bowed down to
just because you pray in tounges and others.
Someone once came and gave me a suit. Some people, in seeing your gift from

God will come and give you suits and then you will end up walking around
expecting suits from people. A minister is a servant and I am a minister
because I gave someone else potatoes to eat. My work is to share this message
with you; Jesus came to serve.
The signs of a servant:
Isaiah 11:2
God will tell you to get off your Fortuner and go and preach the gospel. I am
educated and was working at Sokhamlilo Building but God instructed me to go
and preach in schools. It does not matter who you are or what your in-laws
think of you, whether you have blemishes Jesus wants what is despised.
1. Spirit of wisdom
This shows you the difference between what you should do, wear, whether you
should get a certain hairstyle and what you should not do. It is the spirit of
doing the right thing at the time.
1 Corinthians 12:8
Others give wise advice: Jesus gives it to them. When I was in school I prayed
a lot and God opened my mind. I had many opportunities when I had to go to
Univsersity. God helped me decide what to study. He will give wisdom to know
whether to preach in Mbabane or Cape Town.
A servant of God must have wisdom. We used to have a committed lady in our
church prayer meeting. I had to decide whether to go to the prayer meeting or
not. I need wisdom to make the right decision. In University you must decide
who your study partner will be. Will it be John or Sophie? In doing God's work
you need wisdom otherwise I as your pastor will end up going on an evangelism
tour with Mrs Jones. That would be an abomination. Jesus wants us to have
the mind and heart of servitude. He is the one who will give wisdom.
The spirit of wisdom will teach you to listen to the Holy Spirit and the voice

within. Without the spirit of wisdom I will go and pray for one of the ladies at
our church without without letting my wife know or I will start a business
without telling my wife. It is the spirit of wisdom that tells me to discuss these
things with my wife.
Do not desert Christ. Stick to Him and do not be a friend of the devil.
