Serve with humility

Driving awl though ear to doorpost

Serving in humility

OT "serve" more than 200 x

eg Moses told to tell Pharaoh

Let my people go

that they may serve the Lord.

Exodus 8:1, 9:1, KJV.

serve: Hebrew root word

to expend energy

to worship

to minister to

eergise

devotion

we were created to serve God

we have failed

Adam chose to serve his own interest.

We are more interested in self-service

not God-service

sin entered the world

"Dont you tell me what to do"

Jesus came 

to die

to save us

to defeat the devil

to show us how to live

in relationship to God.

So how does Jesus example relate to us?

We ought to walk in the same manner.

Volunteer to be a bond slave for ever

because we love Him and His household.

Is serving God characteristic of your life?
