We are the servants of the Lord, preparing the Earth, humanity for the coming of Jesus and his kingdom. Our position is that of servants of the Lord, the King of kings that comes to govern the Earth. Affirm this yourself: &#8220;I am servant. My identity is to be servant. The Lord chose me to serve. I live to serve Him.&#8221;<br \/>\nWe are servants and we fit well in the Word of Jesus: &#8220;<strong>It was not you who chose me, but I who chose you. I appointed you to go and produce fruit and that your fruit will endure<\/strong>.&#8221;( John 15:16)<br \/>\nThe Lord chose you, freely, to love. You never call a woman my chosen if you do not love her. In the same way, a woman never is going to call a man &#8220;my chosen&#8221;, if there is no love. The &#8220;chosen&#8221; here, brings a connotation of love: &#8220;My chosen to whom I give all my love (&#8230;)&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>God is love and pours this love on us.
