Be humble and lay your pride aside
Our humility allows God’s intervention. The word humble comes from humus, meaning or is translated as “earth/dirt.” Humility is about coming to grips with our humanity. The Scriptures describe a proud person as one who is “puffed up.” Pride is a determination to be seen as bigger than we really are. When we are humble, we are down to earth. No energy is wasted on pretension. A humble man can be taken at face value. It is ironic that the imagery of being humble is one where we lower ourselves. It is in this position that God finds delight in reserving the order. When we lower ourselves, God is eager to lift us up. Only for the humble is there a promise from God of being exalted. Only to the lowly will God leave a legacy of greatness. Erwin Raphael McManus “Uprising”
May God bless each of you today remember the Scripture also says, “Those who are exalted will be humbled, and those who are humble will be exalted. Would love to hear from you and please contact me… would love to hear from my readers.
