Church of Nigeria Anglican Daily Devotional Emphasizes True Greatness

The Anglican Communion’s Church of Nigeria released its Daily Fountain Devotional for 25 July 2026. The message focuses on the biblical passage Mark 10:35‑45, where the disciples James and John ask Jesus for places at his right and left hand. Jesus responds that true greatness is not about status but about service, urging them to drink the cup he drinks and to become servants of all. The devotional highlights the life of James the Great, noting his martyrdom and his presence at key moments such as the Transfiguration and Gethsemane. The intended lesson is that greatness requires humility and a willingness to bear responsibility.
