Theme of the Month: The Secrets of God’s Glory
Thu, 18 August

“Whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased, and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.” (Matt. 23:12).

Daniel told King Nebuchadnezzar in plain language that if he did not repent he would be cut off. In spite of all this Nebuchadnezzar did not repent. He had said proudly, “See my kingdom, my buildings and my works”, but he had not realized that before God he was like an animal, and had no wisdom. Strength or education is nothing before God and men are only like beasts before Him. As long as you have the old sinful nature, you too are like a beast.

Even after we have been born again the Devil will try to carry us away from the position in which God has placed us. The Lord wants all who are born again to be co-workers and partners with Him. If we are overcomers this will be fulfilled in us, and we will become God’s instruments to execute His judgments. We will be given authority to judge even angels(1 Cor. 6:3). When God begins to judge kings and other powers, He will make us partners in that judgment also.

We think, naturally, that by exalting ourselves we will get more glory. But the simple divine law is this, “Whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted” (Matt. 23:12). Although we know this and have read it in the Bible many times, yet we love to exalt ourselves. Wherever we go, when we are not given honour and praise we feel hurt. The divine law is that only by humbling ourselves will we be exalted.
