Romans 14:4

Who are you to judge someone else’s servant? To his own master he stands or falls. And he will stand, for the Lord is able to make him stand.

Acts 10:7

When the angel who spoke to him had gone, Cornelius called two of his servants and a devout soldier from among his attendants.

1 Peter 2:18

Servants, submit yourselves to your masters with all respect, not only to those who are good and gentle, but even to those who are unreasonable.

Luke 16:13

No servant can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.”

Matthew 24:45

Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom the master has put in charge of his household, to give the others their food at the proper time?

When oikétēs is spoken over you

Words like this one get spoken over people: in a prayer line, in a message from a friend, in a moment nobody planned. The lexicon gives you what oikétēs means. What God is saying to you through it is yours to record and weigh.

Doxa is where you record what was said, in the words it was said in, weigh it against verses like Romans 14:4 with people you trust, and return to it in a year to see what came of it.
