Day 5: The Humble King

Welcoming the King With Hope · With Hope · March 28, 2026

Scripture
In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. — Philippians 2:5-7 (NIV)
Philippians 2:5-8

Paul describes the mindset of Christ. He was God, but He did not cling to His status. He made Himself nothing. He became a servant. He humbled Himself. Palm Sunday is not just a historical event — it is a picture of the heart of God. The King did not come to be served but to serve. And He calls us to have the same mindset. Humility is not thinking less of yourself. It is thinking of yourself less because you are focused on serving others.

Prayer

Jesus, give me the same mindset as You. Help me let go of pride and status and embrace the humility of a servant.
