To be in the service of the Lord one must be humble and wiling to follow. To be a leader in the Kingdom of God one must also learn to follow before they lead. If anyone could have stated they are the leader and all must follow it would have been Jesus. However, he stated that in Mark 10:45 - "For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many.” The life of a leader must be a life of a servant.
