10 Keys to Servanthood
Intro to Servanthood
1. Jesus the servant King
2. Great servants make good leaders
3. Servants support their leaders
4. Servants carry the vision and give a good report
5. Servants don’t seek the glory of leadership
6. Servants do what it takes and love it
7. Servants don’t always need to be asked
8. Servants give more then required
9. Servants are fed while doing the work
10. Ways you can serve
Key number 1: Jesus the servant King
Jesus modeled his whole ministry on servanthood and so should we. Jesus is God and has the authority of God yet at the same time he served us to beyond the point of death.
Essentially he gave up everything in order to serve us!
Often we hear the question “are we giving our lives in order to serve God?” But the question we should ask based on the example of Jesus is this, “are we giving our lives in order to serve each other?”
We can Love, and believe in, and worship God all we like, but if this doesn’t translate into serving each other to the point of sacrifice then we are not reflecting Jesus and what he died for at all.
“I want to be his hands and his feet” on this earth
