As incredibly as it may seem,
these words came out of the mouth of a girl who says she wants to do the work of
God on the Altar. After receiving guidance on a particular activity that was to
be held, and seeing that it would go against her plans that day, she simply
said that she would not do it because she does not bow down her head to anyone.
So I decided to write this
post. If there is someone else out there that has this kind of thought, let me
tell you that you are not prepared to serve God on the altar, not even in the
atrium. A servant of God is aware that the will of God and His direction must
be followed; and we can never place our will in front of His.
The Lord Jesus Himself made
this very clear in His Word: “For I came
down from heaven, not to do My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me.” John
6:38
If for any reason you think
that you will not have to submit to anyone, that your desire will prevail, and you
will not respect the authorities established by God; know that you will not
succeed in God's work or anywhere. As we all know we are not absolute, life
does not revolve around ourselves. Since children we have to subject ourselves
to our parents, teachers, security officers, etc.
If we are not willing to do so
we show that we are rebels, we do not respect anyone, and the only thing that
matters is to accomplish our will. This reveals a lack of fear, and when there
is not fear there is not new birth.
I have written several times about
this: the work on the Altar demands total renounce, we do not choose where to
live, with whom to live, we cannot make plans and if we do we must be aware
that they can change because of the work of God. We have people above us, responsible
for us, and we owe them respect.
Whoever thinks that she/he can
do what they want and decide their own life has not yet understood what it is
to serve God and submit to Him.
If you want to do your will and
are not willing to bow down your head to anyone, know that you will face many
problems along the way, because in this life we need to be humble to move on
and create a relationship with other people.
Think about it my friends, so
that you do not suffer later!
