Remain small in your eyes.
When God anointed Saul, he was so small in his own eyes that he didn’t see himself worthy to be a king and hid himself. But, when title, fame, and wealth came, Saul became conceited with inflated self-worth which led him to lose hunger for God.
Your net worth should not affect your self-worth. Your title shouldn’t increase your self-esteem. All of those things are gifts on loan from God, but you must stay humble, hungry, and holy before the Lord. When you’re a nobody, God becomes everything. But when you become big in your own eyes, God becomes small in your heart. That’s so dangerous!
Martin Luther said, “God made a man out of nothing, and as long as we are nothing, He can make something out of us.” Humility is not thinking less of ourselves but thinking of ourselves less.
If you remain small in your own eyes, God will always be big. Stay humble. Stay hungry. Don’t get so fascinated with the things of God that you lose your fascination with God Himself. Make God your goal, not just a means to reach your goals.
About this Plan
All Christians have a relationship with the Holy Spirit, but not all Christians have intimacy with Him. There is a difference between a relationship and intimacy. A relationship with the Holy Spirit comes through salvation. However, intimacy only comes through the surrender of our lives to the Holy Spirit.
