    MOTIVATING THE SERVANT OF GOD. Ist Lesson: | Timothy 6:1-2 2nd Lesson: Luke 8:2-3 Golden Text: Galatians 6:6 Brethren, that is the theme of our revelation this morning. You will now realise that the person who gives the Word of God to you is the person who gives you life and peace and joy. And so he is greater than every other person. There is nothing you give to him that is comparable with the Word of God he gives to you. Since he watches over your soul, there is a0 amount of benevolence you do to him which can equal the blessing he bestows on you. THE WORKER OF GOD SAVES THE SOUL The person who gives you the Word of Gad is the one who gives you life and watches over your soul. Ana so he is worthy of all kindness and benevolence from you. You should realise that the governor, the president, the prime mi- nister and other government officials are concerned with the welfare of your body but they can do nothing to save your soul. It is the person who gives you the gospel who looks after your soul and so you should show all kind- ness and benevolence to him. Winoever preaches the Word of God is God's representative on earth, and it is thro- ugh him that God passes to bless the world. Therefore it is expected of you to be kind and generous and benevolent to him, not only when he extracts charms from your body or gives visions and heals your sickness that you can give money and other things to him, but since he is God’s representative on earth, you have to be kind to him. HE SHOULD BE COMPENSATED WITH MATERIAL THINGS It is a thing of sorrow that even here in Brotherhood people claim to know God, but they refuse to show kindness and benevolence to the workers of God. !f somebody works as a Civil Servant and is being paid salaries and allowances by the government, do you not think that if he works for God, God will also pay him salaries and allowances as in the Civil Service If somebody goes to the market and buys and sells and makes some profit, after that he comes to the house of God and fasts and prays for the sick, and prea- ches the Word of God, is he not worthy of his reward from the hands of God? If he has given you life and the Word of God, is it not expedient for you to give him material things of this world as compensation for what he has done for you? SERVANT OF GODCUSTODIES THE KEYS TO EVERYTHING On earth, in heaven, inside water and land under water, the greatest duty that a man can perform is that of saving souls. The Works of God requi- res self-control, self-denial , self-sacrifice There are certain action that the Ser- vant of God is prohibited from taking. Such a person stands in a position that every other person should be kind and benevolent to him. There is nothing too great which you can do to compen- sate him. Such a person is the custodi- an of thekeys of heaven. Elijah prayed after the heavens did not give rain for three years and six months. Do you not know that the servant of God has the keys to everything? Why are the inhabitants of the world blinded to this fact, to the extent that they refuse to show kindness and benevolence to the servants of God. NO AMOUNT OF MONEY CAN COM- PENSATE AN ELECT OF GOD This is what | see in you. You say that you understand Brotherhood, if Brotherhood were to be clear to you would you refuse to give food to the Servants of God in Brotherhood or would you fail to show kindness and benevolence to them? There is no price- tag on the Work of God. It is not some- thing you wish to pay to the servant of God=4100 or M200. | do not appreciate such a condition because it is ne longer the work of God. The Werk ef God is greater than everything and se it is an insult for one to stipulate a fee for it. A worker of God is the representative af God. He watches over your soul and does everything for your own good. Nothing is, therefore, too big to be given to him. You have to be kind and generous to him, The Governor, the President, or the Government cannot save your soul. Farmers, traders or Bankers cannot save your soul. The only person.who can give you salvation is the elect of God. It is, therefore, pertinent that we pay attention to being kind and ge- nerous ta such a person. The Scripture says, and for their sakes | sanctify my- self unto you that they also may be sanctified through the truth, Any per- son who takes up the work of saving soul must refrain completely from for- nication, theft, lying, anger, and from all other sins, that he may be holy enough to be very near to God and also pray and watch over your soul. fs it not expedient that we should take care of such a person? Why are we blinded to this goodness we should have done? A WORKER OF GOD CANNOT BE KILLED BY HUNGER | have never seen neither have | ever heard about a worker of God who dies pacause of hunger. Such a thing has never happened in the world. When David, as a soldier was hungry, he and his men went and took shew-bread frora the alter and ate. That was where ht had his salvation. He did not go toa necromancer or to any other person's house for food. Whoever is worthy of serving God, is worthy of honourable position. He should continue to do the work and not neglect it because God can never forsake him for a moment. erethren, we should wake up from
