Integral to God’s children (His people).
2 Chronicles 7:14-15. My people who are called by My name if they humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land. Now My eyes will be open and My ears attentive to the prayer offered in this place.
Humility opens the door to answered prayer – it is conditional and not entitled. The other requisites are praying (talking with God), seeking Him (obedience), and turning away from sin (repentance).
True humility is all about God and not about you
- Agree with who He is. (Putting God in His rightful place in my life)
- Agree with what that means. (Think of areas in my life)
- Agree with His will, so… (To be conformed. Read his word to know His will)
- Exercise your choice. (My will aligned)
- Have the mind of Christ. Philippians 2: 5-8 (example to follow)
- Yeshua (Jesus) is our perfect example. Choose to be humble !
