A Servant of Proven Worth – Part 1
A Servant of Proven Worth – Part 1
Bible Passage: Philippians 2:19-24
The Kingdom of God is unlike the world in almost every way. Worldly success is often measured in dollars, and power, and possessions. But the successful people in God’s Kingdom are not those who have servants, but those who are servants. In God’s economy, the one who is exalted and praised is the faithful servant.
In humbly and lovingly serving one another for their good, we’re following the example of Christ. Jesus says in Mark 10:43-45, “whoever would be great among you must be your servant, and whoever would be first among you must be slave of all. For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”
