Why service external IP address is in a pending state?
Should I enable any load balancer for my kubernetes master?
I'm using kubernetes on digital ocean cloud.

My pod stays pending If a Pod is stuck in Pending it means that it can not be scheduled onto a node. Generally this is because there are insufficient resources of one type or another that prevent scheduling.
Ways to connect You have several options for connecting to nodes, pods and services from outside the cluster: Access services through public IPs. Use a service with type NodePort or LoadBalancer to make the service reachable outside the cluster. See the services and kubectl expose documentation.
To provision Load Balancer or Persistent Volumes in Cloud, Kubernetes uses Cloud controller Manager. Follow this guide to know more: Kubernetes Cloud Controller Manager
It might happen that at the time of setting up your cluster you did not specified any Cloud controller to use that is why it is getting in pending state.
After configuring a Cloud controller Manager you should be able to provision Load Balancer and see External IP.
