Master Server< ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>

John 13: 1-20

Jesus wanted to teach his disciples then and His disciples now, about what it takes to be a master. To be a master is to be a master server. While He was on the face of the earth, He taught in many ways by word and by example what it takes to be a master server. He was the Master of all masters, also the Teacher of all teachers, yet He was humble to the point of death on the cross. He demonstrated what it takes to be a master when He washed the feet of His disciples. At the time He was going to be washing the feet of His disciples, John 13:4, ÒRose from supper and laid aside His garments, took a towel and girded Himself.Ó Jesus laid aside the garment of Master teacher, the garment of authority and power. As a follower of Christ that wants to be like the master teacher, are you having problem taking off your shoe or your hat when or where it is required of you? What would become of you when you become the pastor of a congregation? Today, so many are in place of authority and power but they do not carry the power or have the authority that they should be carrying because they failed to carry themselves through the right channel just like the Master, Teacher, the Lord of lords, has laid it down. John 13:15, ÒFor I have given you example that you should do as I have done to you.Ó As a follower of Christ, are you living by His entire example as it has been given to you? When you begin to live by what He asked from you, then you will begin to do what He did. Results will be following you because you are living the example of the Master, and getting the kind of results that He was getting. Do what He is asking from you and you will get what you ask from Him.
