    The Number Zero – Becoming Nothing – Humility
    Matthew 23:11-12 NKJ
    But he who is greatest among you shall be your servant. And
    whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself
    will be exalted.
    Philippians 2:5-11 NKJ
    Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who, being in
    the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but
    made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and
    coming in the likeness of men. And being found in appearance as a
    man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death,
    even the death of the cross. Therefore God also has highly exalted
    Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the
    name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of
    those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue
    should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the
    Father.

3 Practical Ways To Serve:

1. Home
   1 Timothy 3:4-5 ESV
   He must manage his own household well, with all dignity keeping his
   children submissive, for if someone does not know how to manage
   his own household, how will he care for God’s church?
2. Job
   Colossians 3:23-24 NKJ
   And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men,
   knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the
   inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ.
3. Church
   Isaiah 40:31-32 NKJ
   But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall
   mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary,
   they shall walk and not faint.
   Matthew 18:3 NKJ
   And said, “Assuredly, I say to you, unless you are converted and
   become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of
   heaven.”
