When God wanted to introduce His Son, who did He send? John the Baptist—a messenger who displays the supreme character God seeks in His servants, called humility.
When God described the messenger He would use as the herald announcing the coming of the Lamb of God who would die for sin, how is he described? In Mark 1:3, he is called a “voice”, no name, no rank, no flowery introduction—and how profoundly these words about John the Baptist remind us how important humility is to God.
The supreme lesson of John the Baptist’s life is humility. And there can be no more vital message that we all need to hear than that God HATES pride. God used John because he was willing to obey the Lord and, by the power of the Holy Spirit in his life, cultivate humility. (John 3:26-30)
