Devotional: Devotional: Becoming As We Serve Others Into Greatness PT 2
When you sit at the table, God says you are worthy. Serving someone is prophetic because you are deeming them worthy and fit of sitting at the King’s table, even if they don’t see themselves worthy. In Luke 22:27, Jesus says that our core calling is to live lives of radical generosity and extreme kindness so we can restore people to their proper place by serving them. When we serve someone into greatness, we are putting them in the place of honor where the God of the universe waits on them.
