S // SCRIPTURE
Select a verse from today’s reading
Matthew 25:30 (NKJV) ‘And cast the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’
O // OBSERVATION
Why did this verse get your attention? Make a simple observation from the text
Jesus told a parable about servants. These servants were given resources in order to make something out of it for their Master.
The final servant of the parable was called an ‘unprofitable servant’ because he did nothing positive with what he was given.
A // APPLICATION
How can I apply this to my life today?
What stuck out to me was the term ‘unprofitable servant’. It is a contradiction.
What good is an unprofitable servant? The whole purpose of a servant is to be profitable to the Master. An unprofitable servant is not a servant at all.
How can I be a profitable servant to my Master today?
P // PRAYER
Express yourself in prayer
Lord, Give me wisdom, faith and courage to serve You today. Amen.
