One Splintered
Gift, Lowly
Service In Grace
shared by Suzin McNeill
Zech 9:9
Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of
Jerusalem:
behold, thy King cometh unto thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon
an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass.
WORD
OF THE LORD
Learn
of
Me; for I am meek and lowly in heart. Have you stood with Me in lowliness? Have you been abased for My
kingdom
because you have denied yourself in following My will? Have you suffered
persecutions
for My sake? Where are the splinters of the lowly manager in birthing My
self in you? Where are the splinters of the rough hewn wood of the cross evident
within you? The greatest among you comes walking with all lowliness of heart
unafraid
and reaching forth to the unclean, to the cast down, to the broken, and
raising
them through My love. Circumstances in low degree are the birthing tables to ruling
as kings and priests and daughters of My glory.
A new day is before you and crying for My glory to come, will
not bring
it to you. Serve one another in fullness of heart daring to take upon yourselves
the robe of your Servant King. Seek to serve in My love and you will look up and behold,
My glory will shine upon you and surround you.
Have you given that which you cherish the most to another? See
My FATHER.
Take your pricey cherished thing and let go of it in the giving. Hold not
to your things but cling to Me in service to one another. The battered and maimed will
come. The lowly and broken ones are all around you. As My FATHER required of the three
wise kings at My birthing, so does HE require of you, now, to make giftings and
offerings of that which you have. Come lay down the things that weigh you. Lay down your
coveted treasures. Stop serving things and come and serve Me with lowliness
of heart by serving those who can not repay you. Come give your best gift this
season to another
and then serve Me by serving others in lowliness of heart.
Shall you be humbled? Shall you be broken? Have you shared in
My fellowship of sufferings? Why would I say to you the words "deny yourself" and
follow Me, if I did not have many kingdom issues for you to learn? Character is
created in you through trying circumstances. Serving with the lowly heart unites your
heart with Mine. I came to preach the gospel to the poor, the hurting, the
afflicted,
the meek, the broken, and to those who had only hope.
How can you measure your own worth before Me? Who do you serve
most?
Where are your talents shown for your own glory? Can you release
yourself
from even your one most cherished possession and give it freely to
another? Can you
release your one thing without a prideful announcement? Can you do good
and quietly
serve those who can not repay you? When you are willing to give in
facelessness
and selflessness, you will be prepared to reign with Me as the kings and
queens I have
called you to be. Shall I call you yet again to deny your self and
follow Me? I gave all for you. I call you again. Learn of
me; for I am meek
and lowly in heart:
Riches profit not in the day of wrath: but righteousness
delivereth
from death. Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before
a fall. Better it is to be of an humble spirit with the lowly, than to
divide the spoil with the proud.
Prov 3:34-35 Surely he scorneth the scorners: but he giveth grace unto the
lowly. The wise shall inherit glory: but shame shall be the promotion of
fools.
Phil 2:5-8 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ
Jesus: Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be
equal
with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the
form of
a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in
fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became
obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
Matt 11:28-30 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will
give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly
in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
