Humble yourselves...!

James 4.6-7,10 NKJV

But He gives more grace. Therefore He says: “God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble.” Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up.

† Shalom †......! Day #173. Do you know that God resists the proud? Let us pray. Father, we come before You,  we humble ourselves and we pray that You would come and heal us, restore us and revive us once again as we leave our wicked ways and we turn back to You. Extend Your grace and mercy to us, Lord,  as we humble ourselves and seek Your face. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

Friends, humbleness is the beginning of repentance, restoration, healing and revival. The Lord says that "if My people who have been called by My name, humble themselves.... " we are a people chosen by God, who have been called by His name, it means God summoned us by His name so that we would humble ourselves and pray and God will restore, revive and heal us. We are His people, chosen generation, a holy priesthood,  set apart for Him. We are to come in humbleness and seek Him. We are the Prayer Warriors. People find it hard to loose themselves and bend their knees to worship God. Humbleness is the beginning for every greatness God has stored for us.

God resist the proud. Pride is dangerous. It can dig a grave hole for you. Boasting in the Lord is not pride. Pride cones from the devil. When you have accomplished something and the sense of completing something comes into your spirit and when that happened we begin to say "I did this with all my intelligence, my strength... ". Beware friends, many has fallen into this trap. Even, when someone gives advices also, some people may not want to heed it. Do not pretend before God as though you have humble yourself. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up.

Let this day be the day of the Lord!
