 OF THE MOST HIGH GOD

                                    “LET THIS MIND BE IN YOU

                                             IN CHRIST JESUS,

                                         WHO…MADE HIMSELF
                                         OF NO REPUTATION,
                                        TAKING THE FORM OF

                             A SERVANT…

                                      HE HUMBLED HIMSELF…”
                                                   Phil. 2:5-7

                                                                  This is the eighth in a list of twelve priorities
                                                                     that God spells out in His Word as being

                                                                His will for His people. It is important to grasp
                                                                   that God never asks His people to do or be
                                                                      something that He has not demonstrated
                                                                  Himself. The Scripture above reveals that in
                                                                   addition to Jesus coming to earth to inherit

                                                              such lofty roles as “a Prophet like unto Moses”
                                                                (Acts 3:22-26), as “the Apostle and High Priest
                                                                                       of our confession” (Heb.3:1),
                                                               as “the Chief Cornerstone of the Household of
                                                               God” (Eph.2:19-20), as “King of the Kingdom of
                                                               God” (Jn. 18:36-37), as “Head of the Body, the
                                                                 Church” (Col. 1:18), He also came to assume
                                                                                       the lowly office of a servant.

                                      It is to this same humble position that God calls every believer in
                                      Christ. This newsletter is dedicated to establishing this often-
                                      ignored priority in the hearts of God’s people.
