Mark Walker shares with us from Mark 10:32-52.
He asked us “Are you asking God for the right things?”
The disciples James and John asked Jesus for glory - to sit beside Him in power. But Jesus answered with a question: “Can you drink the cup I drink?” They wanted honour… but they didn’t understand the cost.
Sometimes we ask God for things without stopping to ask why. Is it pride? Position? Power? Or a desire to really serve like Jesus?
👆The world says, “Climb higher.”
👇 Jesus says, “Go lower.”
To be great in His kingdom is to become a servant. To lead is to lay your life down.
Honour in the Kingdom looks like humility, not status.
So before you ask, ask yourself this: Am I ready to take the cup?
“Whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first must be slave of all.” Mark 10:43-44
