Matthew 20:28
“The Son of Man came not to be served, but to serve.”
Devotional
True strength lies not in dominion but in service. The King of all creation, born in a humble manger, chose the path of servitude to redeem the world. As a warrior, your calling extends beyond battle—it encompasses a life of sacrifice for the good of others.
This Christmas, reflect on the example of Christ, the ultimate Servant Warrior. He wielded infinite power yet stooped to wash the feet of His disciples, to heal the broken, and to carry the burdens of humanity. In doing so, He demonstrated that humility and service are not signs of weakness but the marks of unshakable strength.
As you face your battles, remember that serving others strengthens the soul and aligns you with the heart of the King. Lead with humility and love. In serving others, you reflect the light of Christ and bring honor to His name.
This season, let your strength be tempered with gentleness, your courage with compassion, and your leadership with servitude. Embrace the mantle of the Servant Warrior, and glorify the One who served us all.
Prayer
Lord, You came to serve, not to be served. Teach me to follow Your example with humility and strength. Let my actions reflect Your love, and may I find joy in serving others as You have served us. Amen.
