Firstly, you’ll need somewhere to host the resource pack, this needs to be a direct download link which rules out lots of sites such as Mediafire, or Google Drive.

Drag the ZIP file of the pack you wish to use, onto the Choose File button
Click Upload
The site will give you the details in the following format, you can proceed to the Adding the resource pack section:
Once you have the resource pack details from following one of the methods above, you will need to add it to your server.properties file. To do so, you’ll need to do the following:
Log into your server’s FTP -
Edit the server.properties file.
Find the resource-pack= line and change it to resource-pack=https://www.dropbox.com/s/abcd12345678/PureBDcraft%20128x%20MC116.zip?dl=1, or whatever your link is
Find the resource-pack-sha1= line and change it to resource-pack-sha1=7e8434889947b3417aded72e2495b0b85a7aef72, or whatever your hash is
Reboot the server
