Gentleness – Meekness

Moses was more meek than all people of his time – Num. 12:3
(Now Moses was a very humble man,  more humble than anyone else on the face of the earth.)

Paul – 1 Thes. 2:7
Instead, we were like young children among you.

2 Cor. 3:5
Not that we are competent in ourselves  to claim anything for ourselves, but our competence comes from God.

Jesus is the Great example of meekness – Matt. 11:29
Take my yoke upon you and learn from me,  for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.

Matthew 21:5
“Say to Daughter Zion,
 ‘See, your king comes to you,
 gentle and riding on a donkey,
 and on a colt, the foal of a donkey.’”

2 Corinthians 10:1
By the humility and gentleness  of Christ, I appeal to you—I, Paul,  who am “timid” when face to face with you, but “bold” toward you when away!

How to Serve

Uprightness of Heart – Rom. 12:2
Do not conform  to the pattern of this world,  but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.  Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is —his good, pleasing  and perfect will.

Undefiled Conduct – Luke 1:74
to rescue us from the hand of our enemies,
 and to enable us to serve him  without fear

Soundness of Motive – Rom. 7:6
But now, by dying to what once bound us, we have been released from the law  so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit, and not in the old way of the written code.

Wholeness of Being – Heb. 12:28
Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken,  let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe,
