Great Exploits with a Servant
Heart
“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reminder that a life withdrawn from all service to others loses its meaning.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.

“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.”
