UCB Word For Today Devotional For October 14, 2021 : Topic - Today, practise humility

- , , ,
--> Note :- Are you born again? You are never going to win the battle against the devil if you are not born again. I plead with you to give your life to Jesus today because the longer you stay in sin and remain unsaved, the more hardened your nature becomes against the purpose and the way God wants you to be for His purpose. To give your life to Jesus now, say this prayer: “Father, I come to You in the name of Jesus. I know that I am a sinner and I cannot save myself but Jesus died for me and shed His blood that I might be saved. Today, I accept Jesus as my Lord and Saviour. Jesus, I ask You to come into my heart, be my Lord, wash me with Your blood and make me whole. I believe with my heart and confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord. Thank You for saving me. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.” I congratulate you and welcome you to the family of God if you have sincerely said that prayer. Now you are fit to discover, know and walk in your destiny.

Today, practise humility

14 OCTOBER 2021

‘Those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.’
Matthew 23:12 NLT

Paul had one of the greatest ministries the world has ever known, yet he said of himself, ‘Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief’ (1 Timothy 1:15 KJV). When people told Paul how great he was, he stayed humble by remembering what he used to be. If you believe God has called you, your response should be to bow down in humility before Him.

When the Angel of the Lord told an ageing Zacharias he would father a son named John the Baptist, Zacharias hit the floor and didn’t move, to the point where people wondered if he was dead. Ezekiel had a book in the Bible named after him. That’s heady stuff! Yet when God called him, he collapsed on the floor and God had to tell him to get up, saying, ‘Son of man, stand upon thy feet, and I will speak unto thee’ (Ezekiel 2:1 KJV).

When John the Revelator saw Jesus standing in the midst of the seven churches, he wrote, ‘When I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead’ (Revelation 1:17 KJV). Can you see a pattern emerging here? Paul writes, ‘Walk…with…lowliness and gentleness, with longsuffering’ (Ephesians 4:1-2 NKJV). Think about the phrase ‘walking with God’. Whose company are you in? God’s! Can you think of a higher calling? And the higher your calling, the lower you must become in your own estimation. Humility doesn’t mean thinking less of yourself; it means thinking of yourself less. Jesus summed it up like this: ‘Those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.’ Today, practise humility.

Jeremiah 20-21, 1 Timothy 3
