LET NOT ANOINTING MAKE YOU BECOME PROUD

 For taking your time to study remain blessed. 

TOPIC: LET NOT ANOINTING MAKE YOU BECOME PROUD September Tuesday 8th

TEXT: Proverbs 16:17-19

KEY VERSE: James 4:6 But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble. 


What about having the understanding that you are nothing? You are not looking up to yourself but to God because you realize that you are nothing without Him. God wants this spiritual understanding that you are not counting on your spiritual gifts, but on righteousness and holiness. Though I can move mountains but I do not have love, righteousness and holiness, I am nothing. Though I have power to cast out devils, though I can speak in tongues of angels, if I do not have the righteousness, charity and life of God, I am nothing. This is something you need to understand. Paul said, “That I might be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith.” That is what I am looking for, not my own righteousness, or to show myself to people as a great man of God doing great work for God.   


Philippians 2:5-7 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made Himself of no reputation, and took upon Him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men.


The humble man constantly reminds himself that better is the end of a thing than the beginning of it. Whatever you are achieving now may attract the compliment and commendation of both God and man but you don’t boast about it. Many have become carried away by achievement and got cast away. So, it is how it ends that matters, not how it began. The spiritual man is aware that many who were better and greater than him have fallen so he goes gently so as not to fall into the pitfall of pride. It takes humility and spiritual understanding to worship and serve God. Such a man is guided and directed by the Holy Spirit in all that he does. 


Thought for the day: Be of a humble spirit to excel in life and ministry.

Song for the day: All power, all power belongs to God….

Bible reading for the day: Proverbs 13-14; 1 Corinthians 16

Every Word Of God For Daily Living For taking your time to study remain blessed July Tuesday 9th TOPIC: WE ARE IN THE TWILIGHT HOUR OF RAPTURE TEXT: Ephesians 5:26-27 KEY VERSE: Hebrews 9:28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation. Seeing the traces of the features of the next dispensation in this present dispensation, you should know that you are in the twilight hour. What is a twilight hour? A twilight hour is that hour of the day that you begin to see the traces of the night while it is still daylight (probably 7:00pm to 7:30pm). It is not completely dark, yet it is not complete bright either. While it is still day, you are seeing the traces of the night. A twilight hour is the hour when you are still in this dispensation but you are already seeing traces of the next. The twilight hour is the time that our Lord Jesus Christ was born and even though He came with the New Test...
