Scripture: Mark 9:33-35

In verse 35 Jesus introduces the principle that makes ascension work when He says, “And he sat down, and called the twelve and said to them, ‘If anyone desires to be first he shall be last of all and servant of all.’” The principle that gains us ascension in the kingdom is one of servanthood. The degree to which we are willing to serve determines the height to which God can take us in life. The number one thing we need to learn is how to serve. Learning to serve qualifies us for the full measure of ascension that God can bring!
