Finally, brethren, whatever is honorable, . . . Dwell on these things . . .

Honor God:
Be careful to fear (reverence) this honored and awesome name, the Lord your God,¹
Praise, exalt and honor the King of heaven, for all His works are true and His ways just, and He is able to humble those who walk in pride.”²
Honor the Lord from your wealth And from the first of all your produce;³
The Lord says, “He who offers a sacrifice of thanksgiving honors Me;”⁴
Deuteronomy 28:58/Daniel 4:37/Proverbs 3:9/Psalm 50:23a NASB1995

🌹Finally, brethren,whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute,
if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, dwell on these things.

Trustworthy?

Sep2

But above all, my brethren, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or with any other oath; but your yes is to be yes, and your no, no, so that you may not fall under judgment.
James 5:12 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/jas.5.12.NASB1995

Can we be trusted to speak truth? Is our Yes, yes; our No, no?

But I (Jesus) say to you, make no oath at all, either by heaven, for it is the throne of God, or by the earth, for it is the footstool of His feet, or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. Nor shall you make an oath by your head, for you cannot make one hair white or black.
🌹But let your statement be, ‘Yes, yes’ or ‘No, no’; anything beyond these is of evil.

Humble Obedience

May19

. . . as those who have been chosen of God, holy and beloved, put on a heart of
humility
Colossians 3:12 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/col.3.12.NASB1995

Jesus, our perfect example:
Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind regard one another as more important than yourselves; do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others. Have this attitude in yourselves which was also in Christ Jesus, who, although He existed in the form of God, did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men. Being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.
Philippians 2:3-8 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/php.2.3-8.NASB1995

🌹The reward of humility and the fear of the Lord are riches, honor and life.

Worthy Is The King

Who is the King of glory?
The Lord strong and mighty, The Lord mighty in battle.
Psalms 24:8 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.24.8.NASB1995

Power to Glorify

Apr16

“Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh; is anything too difficult for Me?”
Jeremiah 32:27 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/jer.32.27.NASB1995

‭All believers have been called. Called through salvation to fulfill the plan of God. The glory in this is that fulfilling God’s plan is not dependent on us. That’s a huge weight lifted off of our shoulders. Before you get too excited though, we do have responsibilities beyond our confession of belief in Jesus Christ:

1. Love the Lord your God – Joshua 23:11
2. Seek His kingdom first – Matthew 6:33
3. Surrender your will to God’s will – Matthew 6:10
4. Obey – Acts 5:29
5. Honor – 1 Corinthians 6:20
6. Follow – ‭1 John 2:6
7. Abide in Him – John 15:4

You can participate in the wonders of God and see His glory as He works through His fully devoted servant – YOU!

If we live by the Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit.
Galatians 5:25 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/gal.5.25.NASB1995

And the disciples were continually filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit.
Acts 13:52 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/act.13.52.NASB1995

‘Ah Lord God! Behold, You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and by Your outstretched arm! Nothing is too difficult for You,
Jeremiah 32:17 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/jer.32.17.NASB1995

Lord God, I surrender. Use me for Your glory!

God’s Humble People

Mar4

and My people who are called by My name humble themselves . . .
2 Chronicles 7:14a NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/2ch.7.14.NASB1995

‭‭‭‭A position of prayer is a humble heart. Coming before Almighty God, our Creator, is an awesome privilege. Direct contact with the One who loves us and gave His life for us. What have we to offer God? Nothing, except what He has given us. Life. Breath. The means to survive.

All of mankind needs to deal first with the issue of pride. Can we be like God? No. We are His creation. God always was and always will be.

A man’s pride will bring him low, But a humble spirit will obtain honor.
Proverbs 29:23 NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/pro.29.23.NASB1995

‭‭When pride comes, then comes dishonor, But with the humble is wisdom.
Proverbs 11:2 NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/pro.11.2.NASB1995

Pride brings one low and with it comes dishonor. With humbleness comes wisdom and honor.

Do you want God to hear your prayers? Bow before Him with a humble heart.

Humble yourselves in the presence of the Lord, and He will exalt you.
James 4:10 NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/jas.4.10.NASB1995

🌹MY people who are called by My name humble themselves . . .
