Jesus’ act of washing feet demonstrates humility, as feet are considered a dirty and lowly part of the body. When Jesus washed the feet of the disciples it symbolized a spiritual cleansing and was symbolic to represent the authority Jesus had to forgive SIN.
The act that Jesus displayed through washing of the feet showed that greatness in the kingdom of God is measured by humility and service.
By this story we are reminded we are fully washed CLEAN when we TRUST in Christ.
True greatness in his kingdom is attained by those with a servants heart. When you seek to serve in this way…you will be GREATLY BLESSED.
We all need periodic cleansing from the effects of living in the flesh….in a sin-cursed world. This is done through sanctification, done by the power of the Holy Spirit who lives within us, through the “washing of water by the Word”
Will you let Jesus wash your feet today?
