FAITH CAPSULE: God creates all to serve Him.

Exodus 10

God alone is God. 
God is a rewarder, not a slave master.
God created all to serve Him for His glory.
Revelation 4:11 states, “You are worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power; for You created all things, and by Your will, they exist and were created.” 
Day after day; week after week; month after month; year after year, God alone exists forever. 
God has been before the creation, and He will forever be. 
God is a purpose, God. 
He created all with the expectation for all to serve Him.
The Israelites were in bondage for over four hundred years. 
Serving outside of God took over their life, building for Pharao out of their desire.
Exodus 1:13-14 records, “So the Egyptians made the children of Israel serve with rigor. 14 And they made their lives bitter with hard bondage—in mortar, in brick, and all manner of service in the field. All their service in which they made them serve was with rigor.” 
The Israelites could not serve God, living in bitterness while hard bondage took over them. 
Regardless of any situation, God deserves the service of His creation.
For the Israelites in bondage, God demands their service through Moses. God requests, “So I say to you, let My son go that he may serve Me. But if you refuse to let him go, indeed I will kill your son, your firstborn.” (Exodus 4:23) 
God repeatedly sends Moses to Pharaoh, “And you shall say to him, ‘The Lord God of the Hebrews has sent me to you, saying, “Let My people go, that they may serve Me in the wilderness” (Exodus 7:16) 
The emphasis of God for the service of the Israelites in bondage is not different from calling for all to serve Him today.
How is your service to God? 
One that does not love God cannot serve Him. 
Deuteronomy 6:5, “You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength.” 
Do you love God? 
Are you serving God? 
Serving God is working the works of God. 
Working the works of God is to believe in Him. 
Jesus said, “This is the work of God that you believe in Him whom He sent.” (John 6:29)
God rewards those who serve Him, evidence of one that fears God.
Working the works of God, take a position to experience the reward of God.
God is a rewarder of the worker as Hebrews 11:6 states, “But without faith, it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.” 
Give your God-given days to serve God. 
God is a jealous God. 
God is not a slave master but a saving master.

Prayer for the day: Ask that you will live life to serve God for His glory.
