Remain Humble You Will Be Exalted! (Luke 14:11)
The scripture above is both instructional and wisdom, God
lifts those who are humble to greater things; however, God has no problem
bringing down the proud. The Bible describes humility as meekness, lowliness
and absence of self, and proud as self-seeking, self-exalted and that person is
certain to face resistance from God. (James 4:6) Therefore, humility is a
prerequisite for a Christian and necessary if we desire the blessings and the entering
into the kingdom of God. (Philippians
4:19, Matthew 5:3) In Matthew 20:28, just as Jesus did not come to be served,
but to serve, we too must we commit ourselves to serving others. If you desire,
promotion, elevation, favor, I encourage you to humble yourself under the
mighty hand of God and God will exalt you at the proper time! (1 Peter 5:5-6)
God’s Word To You: “Whoever exalts himself will be
humbled and whoever humbles himself will be honored!” (Matthew 23:12)
Pray This Prayer With Me: Father, according to your
will, I desire a heart that pleases you and a life that gives You glory. Today
I surrender my thoughts, dreams, ideas and desires to you, so you may receive
the glory, honor and praise. I humbly pray, in Jesus' name, amen. Have a great
day! Never forget, in all circumstances, God loves you and you are extremely
valuable and important in God’s eyes! In His service, Jacob...
