"His Voice Today"
December 6
🔸️ Let us be humble before God! 🔸️
Sometimes, I sit outside in the open place and look up at the Stars. I know, there are billions of Stars in the sky and the Earth is like a tiny particle in this Universe! I am overwhelmed with joy and say, "Oh God, how great You are! How wonderful and how great this Universe! I'm still a very little bit of dust on this tiny scrap called the Earth in this Universe! As Your representative, I am in a responsible position to preach Your magnificences. So, Lord, please help me to have a humble and clear mind about myself! " I do this prayer. I kindly advise you to pray the same prayer to God!
Why I can't communicate with the ant that is crawling on the ground! Because, I'm so big! If I go near it in human form, it will run away in fear. If I want to communicate with that ant, first i need to become like that ant. This is the only way. Likewise, God can communicate with us only when He become like us! (Heb.2:14). It is very easy for all of us to understand this truth.
Likewise now, even in our ministry to others (whether the local congregation or the place where we have not met), the first principle before us is to "become like them in all things!" We should never forget that! It means, as the prophet Ezekiel says, "We will sit where they sit" (Ezekiel 3:15)!! This is where the secret of our humility before God lies!
Prayer:
Our Heavenly Father!
Help me to live in humility always before You the Mighty God for whom the heavens, even the highest heavens cannot contain you! Help me to unite with the poor! In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.
