What does the Bible say about being a servant?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible describes a servant as one who faithfully serves their master, exemplified by Christ's role as God's servant.

In the biblical context, a servant is one who has a master and does their bidding without seeking personal glory, and this is perfectly exemplified in the life of Jesus Christ. In Isaiah 42, God declares, 'Behold my servant,' indicating that Jesus embodies true servanthood, fulfilling the commands of the Father with humility and purpose. True servanthood involves selflessness and the prioritization of the master's goals over one's own comforts, reflecting the love and obedience Christ has shown to God the Father and His people.
