to others. He never downplayed the weak, but rather built them
up. Jesus always saw the potential in people and encouraged
that. Jesus was very secure in who He was, so that nothing or
nobody threatened Him. We too as Gods children should not be
threatened by anything or anybody by holding back what God
has put in us, fearing that others will surpass us. Jesus celebrated
the fact that we would do greater things than He did. We should
rather bring all that is within us to the front, build, teach,
encourage, and equip others. And celebrate when we see others
stand in victory.
11. Jesus lived and walked in simplicity.
Throughout His ministry Jesus showed us to walk and live in
simplicity. His teaching was simple, telling stories that even the
children could relate to. His life was simple being a carpenter by
trade. Even in teaching us how to pray, He kept it simple. For many
of us, we feel the need to project our knowledge, sound all holier
than thou, and tell everybody what we can do. Jesus never did
that, lets learn from Him and keep our lives and leadership in Him
simple and to the point without compromise.
12. Jesus ministered with compassion.
On numerous occasions in scripture we read where Jesus was filled
with compassion and we see the miracles happened. Jesus didn’t
tolerate people, not even the prostitutes or tax collectors, no He
celebrated people no matter who they were.
Matthew 15:32 And Jesus called His disciples to Him, and said, "I
feel compassion for the people
You and I need to break down the distinctions that we have in our
hearts towards people, break down the separation of the classes
that is held in our hearts, only then will you be able to minister with
compassion for the people. Jesus had the ability to look through
the masks and painted faces to see the truth of the heart, it is only
through the Holy Spirit we can do the same, and with love minister
truth and life into peoples lives.
