2023 TEENS VOLUME RHAPSODY OF REALITIES – MESSAGE.
In the New Testament, you’ll notice that the word “minister” is used quite a bit. It’s interesting to know there’re three Greek words from which it’s translated. The first one is “doulos,” which is like a servant or a slave. Paul sometimes called himself a “doulos” (a bondservant)—a slave or servant of Jesus Christ (Romans 1:1). Then there’s another Greek word for “minister” called “hupēretēs,” which refers to the office of ministry, like we find in the story of the conversion of the Apostle Paul on his way to Damascus.
During that conversion, Jesus said to Paul, “…I have appeared to you for this purpose, to make you a minister and a witness both of the things which you have seen and of the things which I will yet reveal to you” (Acts 26:16). And the third meaning of the word “minister” is one that applies to every Christian. It’s “diakonia” (Greek), which refers to a person who serves, like someone who’s a waiter.
In Acts 6:4, it’s used to describe the ministry of spreading the Word: “But we will give ourselves continually to prayer and to the ministry of the word.”We all have the responsibility to be servants of Christ, servants of His message and of one another.
You have a responsibility to be a witness for Christ and to deliver the Gospel to other people. God has made you a competent minister of reconciliation (2 Corinthians 3:6 NIV). So, go wild for the Lord! Open your mouth and declare His Word of salvation boldly anywhere you find yourself. He’s counting on you.
