John 1:40-42
40Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, was one of the two who heard what John had said and who had followed Jesus. 41The first thing Andrew did was to find his brother Simon and tell him, "We have found the Messiah" (that is, the Christ). 42And he brought him to Jesus.
Jesus looked at him and said, "You are Simon son of John. You will be called Cephas" (which, when translated, is Peter).
No one remembers that Andrew was the one who brought Peter to Jesus. So much has been written about Peter but little about Andrew. Andrew is an example of the value of invisible service. He was serving God even though no one sees or remembers his actions. True ministry begins behind the scenes when our eyes are on God and not on the praises of man.

Submit To Your Leader
Hebrews 13:17
Obey those who rule over you, and be submissive, for they watch out for your souls, as those who must give account. Let them do so with joy and not with grief, for that would be unprofitable for you.
Jesus Christ Never Changes
Hebrews 13:8
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
Be Generous
Hebrews 13:16
But do not forget to do good and to share, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.

Let Brotherly Love Continue
Hebrews 13:1
1.Let brotherly love continue. 2 Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so doing some have unwittingly entertained angels. 3 Remember the prisoners as if chained with them—those who are mistreated—since you yourselves are in the body also.

The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me
We are all equipped to do the work of the Lord, just like Jesus.
Luke 4:18
18 “ The Spirit of the LORD is upon Me,
Because He has anointed Me
To preach the gospel to the poor;
He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted,[j]
To proclaim liberty to the captives
And recovery of sight to the blind,
To set at liberty those who are oppressed;
19 To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD.”
