Freedom comes by choice. You can choose whom you obey. We are set free from our worldly master, sin, when we obey the Lord. Therefore, we can no longer be in subjection to our old master. (Romans 6:17; 1-2) Although we are slaves there is a payday coming. There is a reward for your service in everything we do. We just may not like it. We are rewarded in serving sin with eternal death. We are rewarded in serving God with eternal life in heaven. What is your reward? (Romans 6:23) What will you choose?   

      We have an issue with understanding servants in our American culture. We do not really have anything that fits this bill any more. We pay our help. Yeah, those people that do the work we do not want to do are the modern servants. We are to be like them. No matter how high we may feel we are, we are never above another. Always humble your selves before each other. (Luke 18:9-14) We choose whom we serve. We serve the thing or things we subject ourselves to. We serve the thing we let rule our lives. We serve the thing we obey. Whatever you obey becomes your Master. Is there something in your life besides God that you are in subjection to ? (Romans 6:16) This means you are the “hired help” to whom ever you choose to serve. Be careful with your thoughts and always be willing to do the “dirty job.”
