Genesis 18:27; Leviticus 6:8–9; Psalm 37:11
The
Christian faith is not seasonal, that you put it on Sundays and or
other religious festivals. The fire has to keep burning in season and
out of season. Not only when it’s all sunshine; everything is going well
but also when it’s total darkness and nothing seems to work in your
favor. Keep the fire burning throughout the night.
While
we live in a society that teaches us that we must raise ourselves up
and
make ourselves noticed in order to get ahead in life, God's Word
teaches us otherwise. It is specifically those who are quiet and humble,
meek and unassuming, who will prosper in the end. It is the meek who
will inherit the land and enjoy peace and prosperity.
Abraham was humble and obeyed God even when he didn't understand all that God had in plan. God raised him up and chose him to be the father of all nations.
God alone will decide who will enjoy prosperity, and He will give it over to those who are humble in their hearts.
While
the haughty seek to raise themselves up higher and higher, God will
bring them down and reduce them to dust and ashes. They try to become
everything, so God makes them into nothing. There can only be one Master and none of us is it!
We
need to submit our hearts fully to God. As we lower ourselves before
Him, He will raise us up before others. Only the humble heart is truly
beloved by God.
Begin and end each day by emptying your heart of arrogance and humbly submit to
God’s will.
