How Can I Serve?

JULY 7, 2023

Everyone must submit to governing authorities. For all authority comes from God, and those in positions of authority have been placed there by God.
Romans 13:1, NLT

 Recommended Reading: Romans 13:1-7

Gaetan Roy is an evangelical leader who rubs shoulders with some of the world’s most powerful people. He has one question for each leader he meets: “How can I serve you?” Currently Roy is the representative from the World Evangelical Alliance to the United Nations. His duties involve promoting peace in war-torn regions and working on issues involving human rights and religious persecution. He considers servanthood a Christlike tool.1

Not many world or national leaders are committed Christians, nor were they in the days of Peter and Paul. Yet Paul said, “Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities” (Romans 13:1), and Peter said, “Honor all people. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the king” (1 Peter 2:17).

At some point in time most of us will encounter a leader we don’t agree with, but by honoring and respecting them, we honor God. Whenever your path comes near to a leader, ask, “How can I serve you?”

Let us obey authorities to live independent lives in which we owe nothing but to love others. And let us honour God by honouring his created order.
