Moving Forward: God’s Great Plans For Us
101 – What is Authentic Servanthood Pt 2
John 13:1-17
Key Idea:
Serving: It’s in you to give.
1) Serving breaks the mould of culture. (vs 1-6)
John 13:7-11
Vs 8 – Meros: A share in someone or something.
Servanthood is essential to understanding the mission and identity of Jesus.
2) Serving identifies. (vs 7-11)
John 13:34-35
Follow the example of Jesus in how you serve
By following His example, people see Him in you.
**MEMORY VERSE: Gal 5:13**

Listening: Life at Sea With Jesus
Mark 4:35-41 New International Version (NIV)
Jesus Calms the Storm
35 That day when evening came, he said to his disciples, “Let us go over to the other side.” 36 Leaving the crowd behind, they took him along, just as he was, in the boat. There were also other boats with him. 37 A furious squall came up, and the waves broke over the boat, so that it was nearly swamped. 38 Jesus was in the stern, sleeping on a cushion. The disciples woke him and said to him, “Teacher, don’t you care if we drown?”
39 He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, “Quiet! Be still!” Then the wind died down and it was completely calm.
40 He said to his disciples, “Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?”
41 They were terrified and asked each other, “Who is this? Even the wind and the waves obey him!”

Pray for Good to Prevail over Evil. Pray for protection for our HMC church body from the attacks of the enemy. Help us be as wise as serpents and as innocent as doves as we deal with spiritual forces around us. Show us how to test every spirit to see if it is from God. Help us recognize the enemy’s counterfeits and schemes so that he won’t outwit us.
