Humble ourselves before GOD


Do we really know or do we really understand the Mighty GOD we serve?

I somehow think not.  I think most people, when GOD is discussed work on the assumption that our GOD is a life size all loving, all forgiving FATHER figure. 

Whilst GOD is spiritual and loving, HE is a just and merciful GOD.  But GOD also is so great that HE created the entire universe.

As I have written many times before, we need to "right size" our FATHER in Heaven.  

Consider for a moment the prophet of the Old Testament, Ezekiel, when he saw the vision of GOD.  He fell flat on his face.  Not just once either.

I believe that the power and might of our FATHER is hugely underestimated.  This is why the above verses resonate with me.  We need to humble ourselves under the MIGHTY HAND of GOD.  And we need to cast all our cares on HIM. 

In due time, IF and only IF we humble ourselves, GOD may exalt us from our position of humility.  And the position of humility is indeed a lowly one.  So our exultation may not be as high as some of the prosperity churches would have us believe.  

Today, again, I urge you, let us "right size" our FATHER in Heaven.  We need to get really low in order to give GOD the exaltation HE deserves for breathing life into you and me. 

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER, I humbly ask that YOU make me more and more humble each and every day.  Take away my proud heart and let me to die to self and serve YOU only.  I humbly pray this in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ.  Amen.

Stay truly GOD blessed today!
