Since we believed in Jesus and saved,we are children of God, and called to be God's servants. How come we should walk as the LORD's servants?
One is because the LORD bought us. We were bought with the life of Christ. The other is because there is a model of Jesus who walked as a servant. The Lord walked as a servant all his life and left us a model.
Then, how should we walk as the LORD's servants?
The First is to obey the will of the LORD. It is to give the top priority to the will of the LORD rather than to your wishes. The second is to live for the glory of the LORD.
We would like to be used for God's glory, not for the glory of ourselves as we used to. We are surely children of God, but it's unbalanced if just being so. Let's recognize correctly what we really are. Also, let's walk to serve the LORD and the church from the heart as the LORD's servants.

You were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your body.
