Mark 9:35
Greatness in Serving: The First Shall Be Last
Welcome, Faith Force Humble Leaders! Today, we’re learning about how true greatness comes from serving others, as shared in Mark 9:35.
Verse Of The Day:
"Sitting down, Jesus called the Twelve and said, ‘Anyone who wants to be first must be the very last, and the servant of all.’" (Mark 9:35)
Imagine being the leader of a group but choosing to serve everyone else instead of sitting in a position of power. That’s exactly what Jesus did! Mark 9:35 teaches us that greatness in God’s kingdom isn’t about being the best or the most powerful—it’s about serving others with humility and love.
Jesus turned the world’s idea of greatness upside down. He didn’t come to be served; He came to serve. By choosing to serve, Jesus showed us that true leadership is found in putting others first, showing kindness, and helping those in need. We are called to follow His example and serve those around us with a heart full of love.
Let’s strive to be humble leaders, choosing service over self-importance and greatness through love and care for others.
Servant Leader Crown Craft:
Create a crown with “Servant Leader” written on a single-line banner. On the crown, write words like “Love,” “Kindness,” and “Help,” and decorate it with bright colors to reflect the humble service Jesus calls us to.
Time For A Prayer:
Dear Jesus, thank You for teaching us that true greatness comes through serving others. Help us to be humble leaders who put others first and show love through our actions. Teach us to serve with joy, just as You did. Amen.
Keep serving with love, Faith Force Humble Leaders! Until our next Divine Dispatch, remember that greatness is found in humility and service. Let’s follow Jesus’ example and serve others with a heart full of love!
