And he brought the letter to the king of Israel, saying, Now when this letter is come unto thee, behold, I have therewith sent Naaman my servant to thee, that thou mayest recover him of his leprosy. (2 Kings 5:6)
Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: (Philippians 2:5)

In the Kingdom of God there is power but that power is unleashed through humility

Naaman tries to use the methods of the world, such as power and influence, to obtain his miracle from God. However, in the Kingdom of God, things work differently where the humble and broken are the ones who receive blessings. The king of Syria's letter to the king of Israel uses language of power and disrespect, which reminds us of how the world operates. In the Kingdom of God, humility is expected of leaders and superiors. God wants simple and humble hearts, and paradoxically, those leaders who are gentle and humble of heart are the ones God will use with the most power. In the Kingdom of God, power is unleashed through humility, weakness, love, compassion, simplicity of heart, and mutual accountability. Read more...

Francisco Diaz S.: HUMILITY! a very elusive quality among those who exercise power and leadership, each person who has influence over a person, a group or a crowd always feels superior to others. Only Jesus Christ exercised leadership with love, clarity and mercy. Who is like Him?
