Your Servant

Matthew 23:11-12 NASB
But the greatest among you shall be your servant. 12 Whoever exalts himself shall be humbled; and whoever humbles himself shall be exalted.

Christ humbled himself, becoming a servant to humankind. He asks the same of us, to follow him. He humbled himself in obedience to God's will.
Jesus was predestined to die on our behalf. We were predestined to live if we place our faith in him, putting him first. Doing so, we share in his glory and the exultation in heaven.
