    Humble Yourself Series

    Contributed by Kamalanathan Francis on Feb 20, 2021
     | 3,379 views

    Humble life is part of a disciple, a command from the Lord himself. A proud heart is an abomination to the Lord, honour comes after humility.

    There is a reward to anyone who humbles before God. Peter insists that we humble in the hand of God and not before humans. Christian Scholar and author C. S. Lewis, said, "a proud man is always looking down on things and people;" As a result, such people lose the opportunity to serve ...read more

    God had put a wall between Israel and her neighbors, not because Israel was better than any other nation, but because she was different. Instead of worshipping idols, the Jews worshipped the one true God, who made the heavens and the earth.

    Chapter 12 The Judge Othniel [Judges 3.5-3.11] Scripture 5 And the children of Israel dwelt among the Canaanites, Hittites, and Amorites, and Perizzites, and Hivites, and Jebusites: 6 And they took their daughters to be their wives, and gave their daughters to their sons, and served their ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 6,368 views

    Too many believers are waiting for the perfect scenario before they will serve the Lord. It’s an excuse that is often used for idleness and spiritual inactivity - the excuse that it’s not an ideal time or situation in which to serve.

    There is no ideal place to serve God except the place where He has set you down. - Eric Alexander(1) The Lord wants us to bloom where we’re planted, and to serve Him faithfully right where we are. He doesn’t want us to sit around waiting for the “perfect situation” before we serve Him. If we ...read more

Looking at the lights on the tree he asked his Father “Daddy, why can’t we have a Christmas Tree in our ...read more

    Jesus says we must all choose between God and our stuff. Increasing our hoard or serving our Lord; getting more space or getting more grace. The choice is ours.

    A look at why we get tired of serving God and His reactions to the "pity parties" that we throw ourselves.

    [This is a long outline with a lot of points and is therefore probably more suited to a Wednesday evening study.] "I DON'T WANNA!": There are times in the Christian journey when we get tired of serving the Lord and we throw a pity party. - Jeremiah 20:14-18. - We whine and complain and fuss and ...read more

    Maybe you happen to be reaching the age of retirement. You need to realize that accepting your age can lead to losing the best years of your life. Do not become inactive and resigned, but continue to serve the Lord's kingdom.

    Tyron Edwards stated, “Age does not depend upon years, but upon temperament and health. Some men are born old, and some never grow old.”(1) Sophia Loren said, “There is a fountain of youth: it is in your mind, your talents, and the creativity that you bring to your life and to the lives of the ...read more
