6/11/2018 - Morning Verses With Mike
James 4:10 (NLT)
"Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up in honor."

Many people want to be exalted and important, and to be glorified on some level. Maybe we wouldn't say so. Maybe we don't feel it all of the time. But part of the motivation for living according to our social system is getting ahead. This comes in having the things we want, getting the respect we feel we deserve or living in the comfort and pleasure. God asks us to quit the world's way of pursuing those things. Instead, He calls us to trust Him to exalt us when the time is right without trying to get that glory for ourselves. See it's us reaching for it (our own glory) instead of reaching for Him that presents the biggest obstacles.
That requires real humility. We agree not to make our daily lives about ourselves, and God promises to make it about us when and how He sees fit.
Not every person has to be flamboyant. God calls us to walk the path of humility today, and revel in God's glory forever.
