HUMBLE MAJESTY
Our primary existence was set in the command to exert dominion. In a paradigm of service; giving, and creating life. We gave ourselves over to learning otherwise. We have usurped light, and life, with darkness, and death.
So, God our Saviour sent to us, both His WORD, and EXAMPLE.
“’You are to lead by a different model…..live as one called to serve others…….For even the Son of Man did not come expecting to be served…..but to serve….and to give His life as the ransom price in exchange for the salvation of many.’” (gleaned from Mark 10:43-45 TPT)
He led with compassion.
“When he saw the vast crowds of people, Jesus’ heart was deeply moved with compassion, because they seemed weary and helpless, like wandering sheep without a shepherd” Matthew 9:36 TPT
He exhibited a heart that taught, healed, and guided. His authority never proved oppression or exploitation. He lifted off burdens. He created life.
The ultimate act of Servant Leadership was at the cross. Proving the Paradox, and the Truth, of taking the lowest place leads to the highest.
“Therefore [because He stooped so low] God has highly exalted Him and has freely bestowed on Him the name that is above every name, That in (at) the name of Jesus every knee should (must) bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, And every tongue [frankly and openly] confess and acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.” Philippians 2:9-11 AMPC
“The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance [to the full, till it overflows].” John 10:10 AMP
Receive Him into your life.
And let it overflow with His.
Be Blessed.
