from The Daily Devo 📆 with Adam Burton · host Adam Burton

Today is Wednesday, December 11, 2019 and here is your Daily Devo. In addition to being the fountainhead of most sinful acts, pride also prevents us from appreciating the full beauty of Christ’s character and work. Jesus emptied Himself, became a servant, and was obedient to the point of death (Phil. 2:7-8). Before receiving a name that is above all other names, He depended entirely upon the will of His Father. Forfeiting His riches (2 Cor. 8:9), temporarily undergoing the judgment of God (Mark 15:34), and tasting death for every man (Heb. 2:9) were just a few sacrifices endured by Jesus out of His humility. Consider the multiplicity of commands instructing us to emulate the example of Christ’s meekness: we are to want (Micah 6:8), wear (Col. 3:12), and walk in humility (Eph. 4:1-2). After a dispute broke out among His disciples about who would be the greatest in the kingdom, Jesus warned that the least among us is the greatest in order to reinforce the significance of servant leadership (Luke 22:25-27). These few examples remind us that we can never sincerely treasure Christ nor become like Him unless God graciously humbles us. Think about this: How does Jesus’ humility serve as a model for our own? What are some ways we can imitate Jesus’ example of humility in our own lives? Thank you for listening to the Daily Devo. Please send me a comment, like, or share the Daily Devo.

TRANSCRIPT · AUTO-GENERATED

Today is Wednesday, December 11, 2019, and here is your daily diva. In addition to being the fountainhead of most sinful acts, pride also prevents us from appreciating the full beauty of Christ's character and work. Jesus emptied himself, became a servant, and was obedient to the point of death. Before receiving a name that is above all other names, he depended entirely upon the will of his father, forfeiting his riches, temporarily undergoing the judgment of God, and tasting death for every man, where just a few sacrifices endured by Jesus out of his humility.

Consider the multiplicity of commands instructing us to emulate the example of Christ's meekness. We are to want, wear, and walk in humility. After a dispute broke out among his disciples about who would be the greatest in the kingdom, Jesus warned that the least among us is the greatest in order to reinforce the significance of servant leadership. These few examples remind us that we can never sincerely treasure Christ nor become like him unless God graciously humbles us.

Think about this. How does Jesus' humility serve as a model for our own? What are some ways we can imitate Jesus' example of humility in our own lives? Thank you for listening to the Daily Divo.
