“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.”
Philippians 2:3-4
This week’s church planting movement principle is: Walk in Humility. This one is a tough one for literally everyone. Our fallen human nature rises up at every turn to take credit, seek approval, desire power, etc. Humility is not our natural state in this fallen world. As you go out into your world to begin movements for Jesus, focus on bowing your heart low before Him. Recognize that He alone gets all glory and honor and praise from any effort we make to advance the kingdom. Put others first always. Encourage others always. Remind yourself of where you came from and from that place of understanding, as God’s grace pours out on you, see others as higher than yourself. In Philippians 2:3-4 we read: “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.” This week ask the Lord to empower all disciples and movement leaders to walk in humility, putting others ahead of themselves.
