Summary:
Christ our Lord came to this earth as a servant and taught His disciples the importance of serving one another. Our Father is creating perfect copies of His son out of you and me, that we would be those who carry out His will in the earth today. It’s all creation coming together to serve our Lord and King, ruler of all creation.
Show Notes:
The servant’s ministry has come forth with the expression of all the gift ministries combined.
People have taken the gift ministries and exalted them to a place they were never to be. They are all servants.
Christ was the perfect example of a servant.
Our servant ministry to each other is the riches of the kingdom that we can share.
As people with a free will, God wants us to humble our selves and serve Him.
We don’t look for rewards, or what I can get out of it, or any kind of recognition. It’s simply a service we are offering to the Christ in each other.

To the weak I became weak, that I might gain the weak; I have become all things to all people, so that I may by all means save some.
Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ.

Takeaways:
As Christ came in the humility of a servant to do the Father’s will, we too must walk in His footsteps and humble ourselves as servants of God and one another if we are going to be His will in this earth.
The Lord of Lords, and King of Kings actually is on the throne. We as human beings aren’t. We have to come to the place that we renounce our human arrogance and submit to the Lordship of Jesus Christ.
