The upside down kingdom by Curtis Sergeant
The Kingdom of God has a King his name is Jesus. He is not only the message but the model. It’s an upside down kingdom.
The Upside Down Kingdom
The way to be great is to serve. Matt. 20:25-28
The way to be strong is to be weak. 2 Cor. 12:9-10
The way to be rich is to give everything away. Mark 10:21
The way to be wise is to become a fool. 1 Cor. 1:18-25
The way to be joyful is to weep. Luke 6:20-26
The way to be first is to be last. Mark 9:35
The way to win is to lose Luke 9:25 The way to live is to die. Matt. 10:38-39
I believe that these principles apply not only to individuals, but also to corporate levels, such as houses in our homes, and our cities, and to legacy churches and organizations. I believe we will be far more fruitful if we begin to live these principles out at both individual and corporate levels.
No Scar – Amy Carmichael
Hast thou no scar?
No hidden scar on foot, or side, or hand? I hear thee sung as mighty in the land,
I hear them hail thy bright ascendant star, Hast thou no scar?
Hast thou no wound?
Yet I was wounded by the archers, spent,
Leaned Me against a tree to die; and rent
By ravening beasts that compassed Me, I swooned: Hast thou no wound?
No wound, no scar?
Yet, as the Master shall the servant be,
And, pierced are the feet that follow Me;
But thine are whole: can he have followed far Who has no wound nor scar?
