LOOKING NOT TO YOUR OWN INTERESTS

When I see you making your life choices to serve out of love, it fulfills My joy.  As you esteem the needs of others and not only your own needs, I see you choosing to lay down your life ambitions for the sake of love.  Simple choices, to give your time and energy to help where you may, brings comfort, fellowship, affection, mercy, tenderness and encouragement.  How it pleases Me when you chose to lay the building of your reputation down to build up another, and serve with My heart.  Thank you, dear ones, thank you.

Matt 25:40 NKJV

And the King will answer and say to them, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.’

Phil 2:7 NKJV

Therefore if there is any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection and mercy, fulfill my joy by being like-minded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind. Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself. Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others. Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men.
