He highlights that true poverty of spirit involves recognizing our insufficiency and submitting to God's timing and direction, as Jesus did throughout His life. Poonen points out that Jesus did not act on human initiative or need alone but waited for the Father's command, demonstrating that obedience to God's will is paramount. The sermon encourages believers to seek God's guidance in every aspect of life, prioritizing divine direction over human reasoning. Ultimately, Poonen reminds us that fulfilling God's will leads to eternal significance in the kingdom of heaven.

A.W. Tozer emphasizes the life of a servant, illustrating how both individuals and the church serve through body, soul, and spirit. He reflects on David's life, noting that he served his generation by the will of God and highlights the importance of living a life that contributes positively to the world. Tozer argues that true service is not merely religious activity but must be aligned with God's will, and he warns against living a life of mere consumption without giving back. He encourages believers to serve joyfully and willingly, ensuring they leave a legacy of service that impacts future generations. Ultimately, Tozer calls the church to embody the servant spirit of Christ, who came to serve rather than to be served.
