“Always put others ahead of yourself !!”
Philippians 2:3-4
Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.
Paul discourages selfish ambition and he encourages humility instead. He describes it as valuing other people more than ourselves and placing their interests before our own. This is tough because our world encourages us to spend time with people who will make us look good and, hopefully, give us some advantages.
Humility is the exact opposite. Humility is about inviting people into our lives, and homes, who need a relationship with Jesus—no matter who they are, what they are wearing, where they come from, or who their network is. Instead of thinking about how a friendship might benefit you, think about how a friendship with Jesus can change someone’s life.
PRAYER
Heavenly Father, forgive me for when I have selfishly placed myself above or before others, allowing pride to guide me. I repent and humbly ask You to help me change and be one who consistently puts Your need for others ahead of my own. In Jesus’ name, I pray, amen and amen.
