The Servant Girl
-Winning when your efforts seem insignificant

Every small amount of effort put in is a big product. We have to play as a team,work as a team. If we score a goal which doesnt belong to us ie. KS
the credits will not go to us bcos we stole the "limelight" from someone else.The winner isn't the one who scores the goal but its the one who creates opportunities to score.

"One small act can make a BIG difference"

2 Kings 5:15 "Then Naaman and all his attendants went back to the man of God. He stood before him and said, "Now i know that there is no God in all the world except in Isreal. Please accept now a gift from your servant."

See what Naaman said? A powerful man, a General of a huge army but yet he called himself a servant! What made him say this?? One simple work from a small simple girl brought a powerful work into a powerful man.

3 truths to learn from this girl:-

1.She acted even though she was insignificant/small
-Be confident
Be confident in Him! The girl was insignificant bcos the Bible didnt even mention her name. She was a slave and people didn't care wad her name was. But she still made an impact in Naaman's life even though she seemed small and insignificant and Naaman was healed from leprosy when he obeyed the prophet Elisha and dipped himself in the Jordan River 7 times.
"Any fool can count the seeds in an apple, but only God can count the apples in a seed." God looks at the seed and He can tell the apples that can come from this seed. God can see the people who will come under us by using us for His called purposes. We are just a seed and only God gives the apples.

2.She acted even though what she could do was small
-Be credible
We are connectors for God. We don't convince but we connect. Instead, let God work the miracles! God is the one in-charge, He is capable of revealing and proving Himself. So surrender to God and let God use us according to His wonderful and beautiful Will as we work as connectors for Him.We cannot save souls. Only God and His Spirit can save souls.

3.She acted even though the risk was high
-Be committed
We are the ones that unlock the Kingdom of God to the people.
We are the answer. Sow with tears, reap with joy.

Zechariah 4:6 "It is not by might, not by power, but by the Spirit."
Zechariah 4:10a "Who despises the day of small things?"
