To Humble Yourself

7. June 2010 by admin.

The thought of humility isn’t often viewed by a majority as being a positive trait instead often times people think it to be weakness or apathy.  However, things work differently in the Kingdom of God!  His word teaches that God will not share his glory with anyone, His son’s and daughter’s, in order to have any lasting effect in the Kingdom, must humble themselves to be perfected into the image of Christ Jesus.  In doing this God himself, exalts the Christ in them, using them mightily as he desires.  If we’re to be truly abandoned to Christ, it shouldn’t be so that we can be a new and improved us, rather he wants us to cast off the old man, the old nature and take upon ourselves the nature of Jesus himself.  This can only be done by humbling ourselves, realizing the vileness of our human nature and allowing through the Holy Spirit, to put on Christ and Christ alone.  Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord and He shall lift you up.- James 4:10
