True Service Involves Debasement
• “You yourselves know how I lived
among you the whole time from the
first day when I set foot in Asia,
serving the Lord with all humility
and with tears and with trials” (Acts
20:18-19, ESV).
• “If anyone would be first, he must
be last of all and servant of all”
(Mk 9:35, ESV).

IS THAT NOT WHY IT’S SO
HARD TO SERVE?

Humble Service
• “Do nothing from rivalry or
conceit, but in humility count
others more significant than
yourselves. Let each of you look
not only to his own interests, but
also to the interests of others” (Phil
2:3-4, ESV).

Humble Service
• Phil 2:3-4.
• “Clothe yourselves, all of you, with
humility toward one another, for
„God opposes the proud but gives
grace to the humble‟” (1 Pt 5:5,
ESV).

Humble Service• “Self-righteous service is impressed with the „big
deal.‟ True service finds it almost impossible to
distinguish the small from the large service. Self-
righteous service is highly concerned with results.
True service is free of the need to calculate results.
Self-righteous service picks and chooses whom to
serve. True service is indiscriminate in its ministry.
Self-righteous service is affected by moods and
whims. True service ministers simply and faithfully
because there is a need.”

Jesus Served in Design
• “If I then, your Lord, and Teacher, have
washed your feet, you also ought to
wash one another‟s feet. For I have
given you an example, that you also
should do just as I have done to you.
Truly, truly, I say to you, a servant is not
greater than his master, nor is a
messenger greater than the one who sent
him. If you know these things, blessed
are you if you do them” (vv 14-17,
ESV).
