“19- Serving the Lord with all humility of mind,
and with many tears, and temptations, which befell me by the lying in wait of
the Jews: 20- And how I kept back nothing that was profitable unto you, but
have showed you, and have taught you publicly, and from house to house, 21-
Testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance toward God, and
faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.” (Acts 20:19- 21
KJV)
I
like this beautiful hymn:
“I
am happy in the service of the King. I am happy, O so happy! I have peace and
joy that nothing else can bring. In the service of the King;
In
the service of the King; every talent I will bring. I have peace and joy and
blessing; in the service of the King.
I am happy in the service of the King. I am happy, O so happy! Through the sunshine and the shadow I can sing, in the service of the King.” (Alfred Ackley-1912)

Here are some of the benefits in serving the Lord “And ye shall
serve the LORD your God, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy water; and I
will take sickness away from the midst of thee.” (Exodus 23:25 KJV) “And now, Israel, what doth the LORD thy God require of
thee, but to fear the LORD thy God, to walk in all his ways, and to love him,
and to serve the LORD thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul,” (Deuteronomy
10:12 KJV) Serving God is not an option for Christians; it is our
duty to do our best for God.
