Humility will elevate you

 "Humble yourselves, therefore, under God's mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time." 1 Peter 5:6


The only one who can elevate a person and make them succeed to the highest levels, with those successes being beneficial and blessed, is God alone.

If you want God to make you successful in your life or your work, you must be humble and patient. Therefore, you must be humble and patient until your time comes. Because God's word says "that he may lift you up in due time."

Many people give up after seeing that God does not act as they want. What you need to know is that God's timing is not your timing; God has His schedules that He planned before He created you and has His time to execute them.

Lack of humility will make you interfer God's implementation of the plans He has for you. Humility is the only thing that allows God to act as He wills.

It is not easy to understand how God works in your life to bless and elevate you because God's word says "...so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts. Isaiah 55:9" God's ways are mystery to humans, which is why our successes come as miracles, and some people call it luck.

Therefore, today I encourage you to believe that God will act in your life, your time for elevation will come, and God will give you honor and blessings.

Prayer: Thank you, LORD, for your grace in my life. I pray that you grant me humility and patience until my time for blessing and elevation comes. Amen.

THE WISEST THING TO DO IN YOUR LIFE

  Daniel 12:3 (GNT) says, “The wise leaders will shine with all the brightness of the sky. And those who have taught many people to do what is right will shine like the stars forever.” This verse speaks about the reward God will give His faithful people on the last day. Those who live with wisdom and lead others to righteousness will shine like stars in the sky—forever. What a powerful promise! Today, I want to teach you how to be wise so you can receive this reward. The Bible says in James 1:5 (NKJV), “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God...”  This means wisdom comes from God, and He is willing to give it to anyone who asks. When you receive God’s wisdom, you will learn how to live the right way and make decisions that please Him. You will also have the power to guide others. The wisest thing you can ever do in life is to preach the Gospel—to help people turn away from sin and accept Jesus Christ. That is the kind of wisdom that brings eternal rewards. Also, if you ...

MISPLACED FEAR

Matthew 10:28  (NKJV) says: “And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.”   This is a direct call from Jesus to correct our fears. Many people fear human threats, sickness, poverty, storms, or death. Yet Jesus reminds us that these things can only touch the body. The true danger is sin, because it separates us from God and leads to eternal destruction. The only fear that matters is the fear of God, for He alone holds the destiny of both the body and soul. One day I was in a garage fixing my car. It was an open space and suddenly it began raining heavily. All the mechanics rushed to take shelter inside. As we stood, they began sharing jokes, laughing about drinking and the women they slept with. I always preach to them, telling them to repent and receive Jesus. But they laughed it off. As we were standing there inside, suddenly the storm grew stronger, with thunder and lightning flashin...
