A Prayer to Be a Humble Servant

Humility is a mind that is set on Christ with submission to the will of God. When we bow in submission to the Lord, He will come to our rescue. - Christine Perry

Humility doesn’t come naturally. It’s a posture of the heart that requires daily surrender to God’s will. In this reflective devotional, Christine Perry unpacks the powerful example of Jesus, who willingly set aside His divine privileges to serve and save.

Rooted in Philippians 2:6-8, this message calls us to reject pride and embrace a servant’s heart, trusting that God uses even our trials to refine our character. Just as David and Job learned profound humility in their afflictions, we’re reminded that true greatness comes not from self-promotion but from bowing before the Lord and letting Him lift us up.

Discover why trials can be tools for spiritual growth, just as David and Job found.

Find encouragement to surrender your agenda and trust God’s sovereign guidance.
