2 Timothy 2:24 KJV
And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men , apt to teach, patient,
The scripture here is making us know what is expected of the servants of the Lord.
One of the most dangerous things, servants of God must flee from is striving. In as much as we must grow and develop in Christ, competition must not be found in us. We need to be watchful in all, we must be gentle unto all men, trust solely in Christ. Gentleness is not just keeping quite always, it is being calm even in the face of trouble
We also need to have the word of God adequately in us also with the ability and willingness to teach at all times. "Colossians 3:16 KJV
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord."
Patience is also a very important virtue, both to do the will of God and to receive the reward. "Hebrews 10:36 KJV
For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise."
We all are God's servants appointed by Christ to bring forth fruits "John 15:16 KJV
Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you."
May the Lord help us to be approved servants of God in all our doings.

Prayer: Lord Jesus, make me an approved servant of God, in Jesus name.
Remain blessed
