Summary: NEVER feel you are better than anybody at any point in time in your life
May the peace of the Lord be with you.
Topic: *STAY HUMBLE*
1 Corinthians 4:6-7 King James Version (KJV)
6 And these things, brethren, I have in a figure transferred to myself and to Apollos for your sakes; that ye might learn in us not to think of men above that which is written, that no one of you be puffed up for one against another.
7 For who maketh thee to differ from another? and what hast thou that thou didst not receive? now if thou didst receive it, why dost thou glory, as if thou hadst not received it?
Beloved, today the message the Lord seeks to carry across to His children through His servant is very simple.
Beloved, *DO NOT EVER LOOK DOWN ON ANYBODY IN YOUR LIFE*
Also, *NEVER EVER FEEL TOO BIG OR IMPORTANT AT ANY POINT IN TIME IN YOUR LIFE*
Beloved, *NO MATTER YOUR POSITION OR POWER, WEALTH OR RICHES, YOU ARE NOT BETTER THAN THE PERSON NEXT TO YOU*
Beloved, all that any man has, from the pagan, to the atheist to the cultist to the Christian to the Hindu etc., was received. It is not any special thing that they did. Everything belongs to God and if He doesn't release it to you, you shall never receive no matter who you are.
Beloved, as everything belongs to us as children of God and we belong to Jesus and Jesus belongs to God so all things belong to God.
Beloved, just stay humble and serve your Lord your God with all your heart, strength, mind and soul through Jesus Christ that God Almighty would pleased in you.
It is by grace that you have what you have and are what you are. You think you worked hard for it? Don't lie to yourself, you didn't do jack. God gave it to you. Don't be puffed up because of a free gift.
*IT'S ALL ABOUT JESUS* and no one else. Beloved even though Jesus is God, he humbled Himself to come to earth as man, walk and eat with sinners. Jesus allowed Himself to go through such a disgraceful death for man. Who can exhibit such humility? Beloved, stay humble and live for the Lord by always being there for a brother.
Prayer: Daddy please help me to stay humble and live for you. Empower me to be there for a brother always. In the mighty name of Jesus I pray. Amen.
_EXHIBIT YOUR FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS AND THE LORD GOD ALMIGHTY SHALL SURELY REWARD YOU_
