Serving

11not lagging in diligence; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord;

58Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the Lord’s work, because you know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.

35He sat down, and called the twelve; and he said to them, “If any man wants to be first, he shall be last of all, and servant of all.”

26If anyone serves me, let him follow me. Where I am, there will my servant also be. If anyone serves me, the Father will honor him.

45For the Son of Man also came not to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”

21“His lord said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a few things, I will set you over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.’

16Every Scripture is God-breathed and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for instruction in righteousness,

17that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.

4You shall walk after Yahweh your God, fear him, keep his commandments, and obey his voice, and you shall serve him, and cling to him.

13For you, brothers, were called for freedom. Only don’t use your freedom for gain to the flesh, but through love be servants to one another.

12Now, Israel, what does Yahweh your God require of you, but to fear Yahweh your God, to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve Yahweh your God with all your heart and with all your soul,

13to keep Yahweh’s commandments and statutes, which I command you this day for your good?

14If I then, the Lord and the Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet.

15If it seems evil to you to serve Yahweh, choose this day whom you will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell; but as for me and my house, we will serve Yahweh.”

23A man’s goings are established by Yahweh. He delights in his way.

5Only take diligent heed to do the commandment and the law which Moses the servant of Yahweh commanded you, to love Yahweh your God, to walk in all his ways, to keep his commandments, to hold fast to him, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul.”

24“No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other; or else he will be devoted to one and despise the other. You can’t serve both God and Mammon.

16as free, and not using your freedom for a cloak of wickedness, but as bondservants of God.

22Yahweh redeems the soul of his servants. None of those who take refuge in him shall be condemned.

13Also, do not present your members to sin as instruments of unrighteousness, but present yourselves to God, as alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God.

14how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without defect to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

28even as the Son of Man came not to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”
