The Humble King

Pastor Joshua Hughes

Text: Matthew 20:21-21:11

Big Idea: The weak are welcomed by the king who comes low, so we must approach his humility in humility. 

1. The pre-requisite for kingdom citizenship is humble dependence.

Matthew 9:27 - “Have mercy on us, Son of David” 
Matthew 15:22 - “Have mercy on me, O Lord, Son of David” 
Matthew 20:31 - “Lord, have mercy on us, Son of David”

2. The pattern of kingdom leadership is humble descent.
