He is able to put down...!

Daniel 4:3, 37 NKJV

How great are His signs, And how mighty His wonders! His kingdom is  an everlasting kingdom, And His dominion is from generation to generation. Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and extol and honor the King of heaven, all of whose works are truth, and His ways justice. And those who walk in pride He is able to put down.

Shalom! Day #236. Do you know that not one man can stand with all their pride before the throne of God? Let's pray. Father, forgive us for our self righteousness and pride which caused us to think or do things in our own understanding and our own way. Crush our pride that we may humble before You. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

All the things Nebuchadnezzar did by and in his pride makes him to realize that there is One who is much greater that him and none can compare to His greatness. Many miracles God performed just to break Nebuchadnezzars pride and to humble him. In every event of his dreams, God performed a miracle through Daniels interpretation. God humbled Nebuchadnezzar. Are we today in a position that's filled with pride? Where we think God does need a position or place in our lives. There is a song, I DID IT MY WAY. Are we doing things without the need of God's intervention in it? Leaning on our on pride and understanding is the beginning of our destruction.

In the beginning,  if we look back at the history of Babylon,  the only reason God brought confusion and change the language they speak because the tried building a skyscraper during their time. Therefore their pride was the only reason God had to intervene in that situation and cancel their plans. Let us who have believed in God continue to trust in Him for every of our lives decisions and for every step be directed by God. Never start a day without inviting God to be control of the day and everything that's goig to happen during that one whole day.

Let this day be the day of the Lord!
