Let Your Acts of Service Reflect Your Deep Love for Yourself and For the People God Created.

The Greatest Servant

Matthew 20:28 KJV

[28] even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.

If we’re honest, most of us would rather be served than serve others.

We’d rather feel special than ordinary. And We’d rather feel important than insignificant.

And though God has made us special, important, and created in His image—His children cannot be above serving, because Jesus was never above serving.

“For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve others and to give his life as a ransom for many.” Matthew 20:28 NLT

So, If the King of kings and Lord of lords didn’t come to be served,

but to sacrifice His life for the sake and salvation of others, we should pay attention.

Jesus warned against doing impressive things just to be seen, :

praying extravagant prayers merely to be heard and taking the highest-ranking positions simply to be known. (See: Matthew 6 and 20.)

Instead, Jesus engaged the outcast, fed the hungry, healed the sick, helped the hurting, stopped for the broken, washed dirty feet, and laid down His life—

even though He was innocent—:

so that even the “worst” of sinners could discover that they are never far from His love.

As you think about what it meant for Jesus to die in your place and erase your mistakes, what does it trigger inside of you?

Worship? Gratefulness? Are you compelled to go and tell others?

Today, ask God to show you how you can serve others like He has served you.

Let Us Pray:

Jesus, thank You for showing us what humble service looks like.

Today and every day, please show me how to follow the example You’ve set.

Please make me aware of the people in my life that I can selflessly serve.

Let my acts of service reflect my deep love for You and for the people You created.

In Your name, Amen.
