When Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck was coronated as the King of Bhutan, he said, “Throughout my reign I will never rule you as a King. I will protect you as a parent, care for you as a brother and serve you as a son. I shall give you everything and keep nothing; I shall live such a life as a good human being that you may find it worthy to serve as an example for your children; I have no personal goals other than to fulfill your hopes and aspirations. I shall always serve you, day and night, in the spirit of kindness, justice and equality. ”
With such words of humility, he won the hearts of his nation. Then in the eyes of God, who is considered to be the greatest?
Luke 22:25-26 Jesus said to them, “… the greatest among you should be like the youngest, and the one who rules like the one who serves. For who is greater, the one who is at the table or the one who serves? Is it not the one who is at the table? But I am among you as one who serves.
Jesus taught that those who serve are the greatest. God wants us to be a royal priesthood of heaven (1 Peter 2:9). Thus, while on this earth, let us resemble God’s holiness through self-sacrificing love, serving one another wholeheartedly.
Matthew 23:11-12 The greatest among you will be your servant. For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.
Wouldn’t it be far better for us to humble ourselves and serve others on this earth and become a royal priesthood in heaven eternally than to be served temporarily and become the lowest in heaven? King Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck set himself apart from the other monarchs through his humility to serve the nation. Likewise, God sets apart those who serve others with humility, allowing them to become the greatest in heaven.
The Greatest God Almighty set us an ecample Themselves by coming down out of heaven to this earth in the flesh to serve us. Elohim God, King of Kings and Lord of Lords, came down to this earth in human form which only sinners deserve. They served us sinners as if they are serving royalty. And yet, we sinners lived our lives as if we were righteous.
Presidents of a country and presidents of big companies are nothing without their employees and workers. The world will starve without the humble farmers; the world will be filthy with trash without the humble cleaners; the world will be without clean running water without the humble plumbers. Those who looked lowly in the eyes of the people of this world, served a great, or even a greater purpose than those who looked down upon them. Those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and the humble will be exalted.
Let us all humble ourselves, and serve each other, following the words of God. Then we will be considered one of the greatest whe we go back to the kingdom of heaven :).
I am proud of being a member of church of God
Just as Jesus Christ our God Himself had been served and taught us to be humble so that we can be the greatest in Heaven, so we have to humble ourselves and serve one another. Therefore i will follow God’s examples!!
I want to please God the Father and God the Mother by serving Zion with humility and sincere hearts.
I could learn to serve others in Church of God. I am so thankful to be here.
This is such a great article! Indeed, who are the ones who can touch and win others’ heart? It is only those who are humble in nature, isn’t it? Father and Mother also touch our hearts through Their humility. The picture is so meaningful. Taking the position of serving in this earth, we will be the royal priesthood in heaven!
We sinners always want to be higher than others but really God’s thoughts and ours are very different like Heaven and earth.. I know that I have to humble myself but really it is not easy to practice. I hope to learn a more specific way of humility by the next article. Thank you!
Those who are children of Elohim(God the Father and God the Mother) are following their way of true love.
While living my life of faith, sometimes I forgot the promise of God and have a complaining mindset while serving others. Through this article, I am once again inspired and reminded that behind the sweat and sacrifical smiles, the crown of life is waiting ahead of us.
As it is written, “what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen, is eterbal,” let us serve each other and work for the great invisible rewards that are awaiting us!
God’s love is so deep, great and thankful.
Let’s practice to be humble for ourselves through the teachings of God.
Humility is a virtue.
How amazing! It’s such an honor to have a humble King.
But God promised us that we will be the Prince & Princesses of Heaven~
Let’s train to be humble by serving, so we will be perfect Princes & Princesses of Heaven 😍
I’ll serve those who are around me as teaching of Jesus!!
God is humble than sinners, so Children of God follow the example of God.
By following God the Mother’s example, we can be humble and serve others wholeheartedly. Let’s have the mind of God the Mother in ourselves.
Heavenly mother always serves us even if she is our mother. Like her, we also need to serve our neighbors.
Amen! We have to serve each other according to Heavenly Mother’s example. 🙂
God’s people have to be humble themselves and serve others.
We will follow Mother’s Teaching:when we serve one other without wanting to be served,God will be pleased.
This is so touching :'(
Only when we know why we need to humble and serve, then we are able to reign forever in heaven!
let us follow in God’s footsteps and practise humility. surely we will be blessed and changed into heavenly natures that God will be pleased with.
What a touching article! Serve others without wanting to be served… I really want to have this kind of mindset. God bless you for the beautiful article! 🙂
“I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you.”
