In the gospel of John 15:18-21 our Lord Jesus
Christ told his followers, "Remember the word that I said to you, ‘A
servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me, they will persecute
you; if they kept my word, they will keep yours also. But all this they will do
to you on my account, because they do not know him who sent me.” Our Lord Jesus
Christ is greater than us because he is our Master. If our Master was
persecuted then we, his followers, must be persecuted as well. However, as our
Master was victorious we ourselves must be victorious. As He was glorified by
the Father we ourselves will be glorified by the Father. Through our
persecutions God's name will be glorified both now and forevermore - Amen!
Inspirational Message:
Whatever
happens to the Master affects his servant. If the Master is persecuted the
servants will be persecuted and if the master is glorified the servants are
glorified.
Prayer
for our Masters: Lord,
Jesus Christ you are not just our Master, you are also the Master of masters.
You are the king of kings and the Lord of lords. We thank you Lord for masters
you have given us. Thank you for the care and provisions we have received
through our masters. Lord, bless and protect our masters. Give them the grace
to model their lives according to your step. Grant this through Christ our Lord
- Amen!
