Topic : Humility, Key To Enjoying His Mercies.
Memory Verse :James 4:6. But the grace that God gives is even stronger. As the scripture says, “God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”
Bible Reading : Romans 9:15-17 GNB. Key Verse : v15.
So then, everything depends, not on what human beings want or do, but only on God’s mercy. For the scripture says to the king of Egypt, “I made you king in order to use you to show my power and to spread my fame over the whole world.” So then, God has mercy on anyone he wishes, and he makes stubborn anyone he wishes.
Sometimes people may try to misunderstand this portion of the scripture. One may think that God is responsible for how we behave or respond to situations. But that is not true. He made us freewill agents which means that we choose what we do and how we respond to situations per time. The truth is that the God we serve knows all things. He knows the end from the beginning. He knows what a man will do even when he had not contemplated doing same. Infact, God has no evil instinct in his nature, he therefore cannot influence men to do wrong things, because he is a good God. “I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears. They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed. This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles. The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them. O taste and see that the LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him.” Psalms 34:4-8 KJV.
A king like Pharaoh was caught up in the web of his pride and arrogance which hardened him before the Lord. Some times when God blesses and lifts certain men, they become short sighted and narrow minded to the extent that they won’t be able to see God’s hand of intervention in their placement and achievements. Anytime men begin to feel this way, they will not see any reason to give God glory or submit to his authority willingly, but becomes stubborn and begins to do things that incures the wrath of God. Thiat is how men make themselves objects of divine resistance which withdraws the grace and compassionate mercies of God from the life of an individual or any people. Anytime God wutgdraws his preservative mercies, the enemy shows up in his usual manner to steal, kill and destroy, John 10:10.
Today we have to learn that we don’t have what it takes to stand on our feet and do much without the revelation of the mercies of God in our lives. Every man on earth needs to receive from the Lord who is the source of everything that is good. We must note that no man can receive from the Lord, except from the point of mercy. The more we humble ourselves before the Lord, the more we are able to attract or enjoy more of his mercies. If a man can stay under his mighty hand in humility, there’s no limit to what God can do in his life. “Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble. Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:” 1 Peter 5:5-6 KJV.
Prayer :Thank you Father God because every of your plan for me is good. Thank you because you can’t withhold anything good from me. Help me to humble myself under your mighty hand, so that I can always drink from the cup of your goodness and compassionate mercy all my days in Jesus precious name…… Amen 🙏🏿.
Yearly Bible Reading : Acts 2:1-13.
