Several years ago, I received a diagnosis that led me to frequent visits with a specialist. Among the medical staff, there was a nurse whose role extended beyond professional care. Though she was privy to the gravity of my condition, she chose to stand in faith, consistently reminding me of what God declares about me: healed, whole, and complete. She did not just perform her duties; she served with a heart anchored in Christ’s love. Each encounter with her felt like a divine appointment, a reminder that God’s promises were greater than any medical report.

​

            Her actions exemplified what Jesus taught in Matthew 20:26-28: “Whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first be your slave- just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give HIs life as a ransom for many.” This nurse’s service went beyond the expected; it was heart service, rooted in love and faith.

​

            Our God is truly amazing! He orchestrated a divine reunion between me and the nurse- not as nurse and patient, but now as Pastor and Prophetess. We have shared platforms at conferences and stood together in corporate worship, a testament to her enduring heart of service. This beautiful journey reminds us that we never know who we are ministering to today or how that service may be divinely connected to our tomorrow.

​

            In modern culture, good service is often transactional-efficient, courteous, and professional. But heart service, the kind that reflects Jesus, is transformational. It sees beyond tasks to the souls being touched. Colossians 3:23-24 reminds us, “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human matters…It is the Lord Christ you are serving.”

​

            As Kingdom Walkers, we must examine our hearts. Are we offering good service or heart service? Does our care for others flow from love or mere obligation? True servanthood starts with the heart, mirroring the love of Christ, and in doing so, it has the power to heal, encourage, and transform lives- just as that nurse and prophetess did for me.
