OBEDIENCE: THE JESUS EXAMPLE

Philippians 2: 5-8; Romans 5: 19

EXPOSITION:

As we established yesterday that obedience is submission to another authority, Jesus the Son of God submitted to his Father’s will even to the point of death. This is the highest form of obedience; to willingly submit yourself to suffering and ultimately death.

If even Jesus being fully God and fully man, obeyed and humbled, then we must as his followers do same. He is the perfect example to follow when it comes to obedience. His obedience brought us salvation.

This perfect example should encourage us to do same. Christ Jesus is our master and we must emulate his obedient lifestyle. His grace is sufficient for us.

PRAYER: Lord God Almighty, please help me to exemplify Jesus Christ in obedience in my generation. Teach me to be humble.

MEMORY VERSE FOR THE WEEK: “Don't you know that when you offer yourselves to someone to obey him as slaves, you are slaves to the one whom you obey; whether you are slaves to sin, which leads to death, or to obedience, which leads to righteousness.” Romans 6: 16 (NIV) #PossessingtheNations
