Theme: Choose To Be Humble .
Date: Sunday, May 18th, 2014
Likewise, ye younger, submit
yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of
you be subject one to another, and be
clothed with humility: for God resisteth
the proud, and giveth grace to the
humble (1 Peter 5:5).
Pride is deceptive, and many walk in it
unknowingly because they can't readily
identify it. Only the Word of God can
show you what pride really is. For
instance, the Bible tells us how some
of Jesus’ disciples took offence at His
teachings and stopped following Him.
This happened in the synagogue where
He taught at Capernaum (John 6:59).
He had said some things they weren’t
comfortable with, and they reacted
saying, “…This is an hard saying; who
can hear it?” (John 6:60). They got
angry at His doctrine because they
thought they knew better than He did;
they were inflated with pride.
Now, Jesus didn't stop them from
going away. He let them go! Then He
turned to the others who remained
and asked if they would also go away.
Peter responded on their behalf, “Lord,
to whom shall we go? Thou hast the
words of eternal life. And we believe
and are sure that thou art that Christ,
the Son of the living God (John
6:68-69).These ones stayed only
because they had value for what they
got from the Lord Jesus. They were
sure He was the Christ, and esteemed
the message He brought to them. The
others weren't sure, for had they been
sure, they would have known He knew
better than they.
Pride is what makes people take
offence and walkout on others. When
something unfavourable is said to you,
don’t become offended and walk away.
Some will say, “How dare you say such
a thing to me?” If the same thing was
said to a humble person, he wouldn't
care because he no longer lives for
himself.
1 Peter 5:6 says, “Humble yourselves
therefore under the mighty hand of
God, that he may exalt you in due
time.” Humility pays; therefore, choose
to be humble at all times. God will
keep granting you increased grace for
promotions, victories, and excellence
as long as you remain humble.

Prayer:
Dear Father, I thank you for helping me develop the right attitude to every word and instruction that comes to me by the anointing of the Holy Spirit. As I respond in humility to your Word, it produces results and accomplishes its
purpose in my life, in the Name of the Lord Jesus. Amen.

Further Study:
Matthew 18:4 - Whosoever therefore
shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
Matthew 23:12 - And whosoever shall
exalt himself shall be abased; and he
that shall humble himself shall be exalted.
James 4:10 - Humble yourselves in the
sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.
