Valar dohaeris (All men must serve)
Valar dohaeris is a valyrian saying which means "All men must serve". G.O.T lovers will be familiar with this phrase, it was one of the Game of thrones' episode title. Men is that saying doesn't mean the male gender alone, it means all human in general.
All men must serve. It's a fact that before you become a master, you will have to be a servant first, before you become a commander, you will have to be a follower first.
If you want to win big, you need to serve big. If you want to become a master in your domain, you have to be a servant first. This is an important lesson for every individuals.
Everyone of us have served someone in one way or the other. As a student, you serve your teachers. As an intern or apprentice you'll serve your master. Apparently anyone can serve and be served. Either your family, your community, your country and the world.
It's there in the Bible, The Bible says, all men must serve. The person who has become a master, has been a servant first. The person who has become a commander, has been a follower first. When Joshua was told to go stand before the Lord, he served. When Moses was told to go stand before the Lord, he served.
This principle applies also to the Kingdom of God. If you want to inherit all that the Father has, you too have to be a servant and a follower before you can become the Master and King.
The kind of service required of us today is just as definite as it was in Jesus' day. If a man does not serve before he leads, how can he lead?
Biblically Serving others is at the heart of what it means to be a Christian and what it means to follow the teachings of Jesus Christ. It is at the very core of our faith to say that Christ came to serve, not be served. Don't quote me wrong "serve" and not "slavery".
Closing thought;
It doesn't matter how long you serve someone, what matters is you being a master one day and being in the boss position too.
You see, only when you become a master, can you truly know what it means to be a servant. When you become a commander, you will truly understand what it means to be a follower.
Above all serve God, the master of all things.
Thanks for reading 💚💚
We've all served in one way or the other, and we learn best when we humble ourselves to be servants so that we can lead by example tomorrow....spot on Herbae.
