Hollywood Prayer Network On Humility: A Humble Heart Devotional預覽

THE LORD REQUIRES HUMILITY

"Every now and again, Our Lord lets us see what we would be like if it were not for Himself; it is a justification of what He said - "Without Me you can do nothing." That is why the bedrock of Christianity is personal, passionate devotion to the Lord Jesus." Oswald Chambers

PRAY: Dear God, thank you for showing me what is good in me. Thank you for also laying out for me what is required of me. Would You help me to learn Your ways so that I can more effectively, and more fully, act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with You? Would You give me that supernatural balance of caring about the well being of other people, staying focused on You, and putting myself second, without judging myself or others? I want to do good, I want to be full of wisdom and mercy and I want to walk humbly with You. In Jesus' Name, Amen and Amen. 

REFLECT: How can I understand if my sense of self-esteem is cultural or Biblical? How do I truly know that I am walking humbly or need to learn how to walk humbly, without focusing just on myself? What do I need to do to become more Christ-like so that my identity is solid in the Lord, and not in my own accomplishments, looks, length of my Quiet Times, or based on what other people say about me?

ACT: Check out the website I AM SECOND at www.iamsecond.com and watch a few of the short videos by people who learned what it means to walk humbly with the Lord. It's a wonderful way to understand if your heart is clear on your own sense of humility, brokenness, and strength in the Lord.
