Evangelist Reinhard Bonnke - Official Page In Luke 15, 19 the Prodigal Son pleaded with his father “make me one of your hired servants…” That is the only request the father rejected. He had many servants, but only two sons. The father wanted his son back. The difference between a Servant and Son is this: both work hard and for long hours, from morning till night. Only at night the dissimilarity shows up. The servant goes and asks for his pay – the son does not. Why not the son? Because the son knows something the servant doesn’t. He knows that the day will come, when all that belongs to his father will belong to him. “All that I have is yours…” (31) Do we serve Jesus Christ just as a servant - for instant reward, recognition and a constant pat on the shoulder? Or are we sons who know that an incorruptible and undefiled inheritance that does not fade away is reserved in heaven for us? (1Peter 1, 3-5). Let us not be man-pleasers but God-pleasers. God bless you today. REINHARD BONNKE In Luke 15, 19 the Prodigal Son pleaded with his father “make me one of your hired servants…” That is the only request the father rejected.
