HOW TO IDENTIFY MATURED CHRISTIAN, 6 THINGS TO CONSIDER


When we serve others we serve God.
People see greatness in this world in terms of power,possession,prestige and position. But in the sight of God,greatness is not measured by ones status but by his service. It's still worried that Christians fight for position in church.
 Let consider this that God didn't created us just to gain benefits for our own selves only but to others also. Hence we must have a servant heart. Matured Christian is one who serves. Our maturity in Christ based on how one service and how he/she serves better. Let see how matured Christian act.

 *MATURED CHRISTIAN MAKE THEMSELVES AVAILABLE TO SERVE.
I used to say that as Christian you shouldn't pray when you feel to pray but we should see prayers as responsibilities, and serving also goes the same way. No one tells us to perform our responsibilities when we wake from bed. The responsibilities don't come when we are available but even when we are not available,there are always task which await for us to perform. A wise person is always available to perform his duties so that he will be comfortable. If you only serve when  it's convenient for you,you're are not real servant and you can't be mature Christian. We can only boast our selves as a great follower provided we are always available to God service.

*MATURED CHRISTIAN PAY ATTENTION TO NEED.
Service to man is service to God. This saying is very real. If you carries one's burden you are really serving God. Little kindness you would show to your fellow can change his life for him to change one too.If were not the wise men who showed kindness to Jesus Christ by not returning to tell King Herode about Jesus,you can imagine what would happen. Great Christian  are always on the lookout for ways to help others.
(Galatians 6:10,amplified version) So then, as occasion and opportunity open up to us, let us do good [morally] to all people [not only being useful or profitable to them, but also doing what is for their spiritual good and advantage]. Be mindful to be a blessing, especially to those of the household of faith [those who belong to God's family with you, the believers].
Proverbs 3:27-28
Withhold not good from those to whom it is due [its rightful owners], when it is in the power of your hand to do it.
Do not say to your neighbour, Go, and come again; and tomorrow I will give it--when you have it with you.

*MATURED CHRISTIAN DO HIS BEST WITH WHAT THEY HAVE.
The rich are always recognised and honoured in their various places they live when the neighbourhood see them using their possessions to benefit the environments they find themselves. Matured Christian just do what needs to be done with what they have. Matured Christian don't make excuses ,procrastinate, or wait for better. Of course they don't wait for perfect conditions before serving.Great man serves with the little that he has at all times.

*MATURED CHRISTIAN DO EVERY TASK WITH EQUAL DEDICATION
On many occasions that have witnessed people shunning works both in the house of the Lord and outside,with the intention that they are above that task. It's hardly nowadays to find Prayer Team leader sweeping or cleaning in the various churches. They thinks, their duties are only to pray,see visions and prophecies and tell the pastors and the congregation.Matured believer doesn't do this,whatever they do they it with all their heart.The size of the work is irrelevant.
The little things in life determine the big things.Don't look for great task to do for God.Just do the not-so-great stuff,and God will assign you whatever He wants you to do.

*MATURED CHRISTIAN ARE FAITHFUL TO THEIR MINISTRY.
Servants finish their task,fulfill their responsibilities, keep their promises, and complete their commitments.They don't leave a job half undone,and they don't quit when they get discouraged. They are trustworthy and dependable.

*MATURED SERVANTS MAINTAIN A LOW PROFILE.
Servants don't promote or call attention to themselves. Instead of acting to impress and dressing for success, they put on the apron of humility, to serve one another. As it's very plain that, humility is the only way that sustains believer.This was a sin of Pharisees. They turned helping others,giving, and even prayer into a performance for others. Jesus hated this attitude and warned, when you do good deeds, don't try to show off,so that will gain reward from above.
Self-promotion and servanthood don't mix.Matured Christian don't serve for the approval or applause of others.
