For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters, Which spreads out its roots by the river, And will not fear when heat comes; But its leaf will be green, And will not be anxious in the year of drought, Nor will cease from yielding fruit.  Jeremiah 17:8

Undoubtedly, God’s servants hold a distinct advantage in view of the fact that He knows how to care for those who deposit their faith, trust, confidence and love in Him. They have a privileged position as they were planted by the waters – the revelations He gives in His word. In this light they must all pay attention to what they will hear from the heavenly Father and at the same time, be ready to accept and execute His orders and challenges. This way they will always be blessed.

The trees are like new born babies who take to their mother’s breasts instinctively needing no instructions. When in their mother’s arms they cease crying and with calm certainty of one who knows, they proceed to feeding on the precious nourishment from the breast. The trees in their turn extend their roots toward the river and take hold of their rights to drink of the water.  However, many Christians don’t value Jesus’s invitation to come to Him and drink.

Those that are well and warmly dressed do not fear the cold weather, but even welcome it. Likewise, whoever is well fed and refreshed in the holy presence of God does not fear the arrival of heat.  The victorious Christian is not concerned or fearful of the sun by day or the moon by night because he knows he will always be taken care of, never forsaken or abandoned. He who is faithful to the Lord enjoys the divine presence and therefore, even if all fails will not be subdued.

It is important to not be disturbed by the works of the dark powers for if the weather is contrary or adverse the saved can use his authority and order the storm to cease. Furthermore, death can be conquered and life restored to the Lazarus.  The soul of the true son of God is always loving, friendly and encouraging. It does us always great good to be near someone like this because his kindness and docility show us the best path.

In days where there is so much despair and hopelessness, where there is no consolation, the servants of God, like the balm trees of Gilead as they produce balm that heals the soul’s wounds, they enlighten the eyes and bring tremendous peace to the souls, never seen before. It is good to meet these people because they are real life changers. When all else fails they bring solutions and the storms cease and fair weather is restored.

The servants of the Almighty are tireless. When all others say that they can’t take any more, they simply show their calm disposition and no sign of fatigue. These unselfish examples make many stop and change their way of thinking, ceasing to be self-centered and turning to serve others as they should. The world cannot live without the presence and service of those who know how to honor the Lord that took them away from sin.

Those who conduct themselves accordingly have no moment of sadness or despair.  This person is always ready to comply and produce permanent fruits.  Thus, they are loved by the Omnipotent. Be a servant to be happy!

In Christ, with Love,
