Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?Jesus explains to His disciples that seeking earthly greatness is foolish, and that one must be converted and become like a little child to enter the kingdom of heaven.
Avoiding spiritual prideAfter being blessed or used by God, believers often begin to think they are important, which is the wrong direction and hinders entering the kingdom.
Papa, where are you? Don't leave mePicturing a one-year-old child holding their father's hand across a dangerous road illustrates how we should depend on God to walk through this world safely.
Jesus suffered on the cross so we are never aloneJesus was forsaken on the cross for three hours so that believers would never have to be left alone by the Father.
Starting each morning in dependenceJust as a blind man looks for his cane immediately upon waking, we must start each morning asking the Lord to guide us and hold our hand.
Admitting our lack of heavenly wisdomDespite earthly knowledge, our understanding of God's wisdom is only a small fraction, prompting us to confess that we cannot handle life on our own.
Pursue humilityThe speaker offers a loving exhortation to actively pursue the humility demonstrated by Jesus.
The greatest mark of Jesus' humilityJesus' humility was supremely shown when He declared He would not do His own will, but the Father's will in every situation.
Yielding to God and othersPursuing this way means laying down our own will, yielding when brothers disagree, and maintaining a path to a glorious entrance into God's kingdom.
