Jesus Examplifies the 2 Drivers of Humility from Philippians 2:5-11

“Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross.”
Philippians 2:5‭-‬8 NKJV

-God the Son existed in the beginning as the second person of deity (John 1:1)
-He was the Word through which all things were created (John 1:3).
-However, in order to redeem man, the Son of God became man- took the form of man (John 1:14, Colossians 2:9), found in appearance as man (Philippians 2:8)
-Even though Jesus was born with flesh and blood, He was intrinsically God. God bypassed the sinful human nature in Jesus by virtue of His birth to a virgin (Matthew 1:18-25).

-Philippians 2:5-11 clearly tells us that Jesus Layed Aside His Godly rights, took the form of a man in order to save man. He did that to meet the Father’s requirement for man’s redemption.

He submitted to God to the point of death.

-He ran His earthly ministry not as God but as a Man anointed with the Holy Ghost (Acts 10:38).

-He identified as Man. He was tempted just as we are, yet He did not sin (Hebrews 4:15).

Likewise us:
We are born of God.
We have the nature of God.
However to stay humble before God, we must submit totally to God and His Word
And we must not think ourselves higher than other people- we identify as men as well. This by no means doesn’t mean we don’t know who we are or what we are made of. We are Born of God! I am proudly Born of God! ?

And just like Jesus, we too though having the form of man boldly witness of Christ and do Kingdom exploits by the power of the Holy Spirit (Acts 1:8).

And we can live victoriously by faith in Christ, helped by the Holy Spirit.

Faith must always be engaged in order to bring the expectation of hope into tangibility.

A consciousness that we are human just like any other man. So that we do not overvalue or overestimate people OR undervalue or underestimate people.

Humility is a prerequisite for attaining greatness.

Pride is a dream stopper.

Join me in this study to explore what pride is, how it presents, its consequences and how to avoid pride..

Be magnified O Lord my God, be highly exalted my Father, because it is your delight and pleasure to prosper me well beyond my imagination and thinking.

Ever since I learned about the principle of multiplication as taught by Jesus, I employ it for my ministry outreaches. And every time I’ve employed this principle just as Jesus taught it, I end up with fragments/leftovers. Now that I think of it, sometimes I unknowingly over-budget for my outreaches, but what I find is; when we get to the field, we are able to attend to everyone who is present and still have leftovers for our support team.

As we continue expanding Jesus’s ministry work here on earth, it has become necessary to open up available partnership opportunities in the ministry so that you can join us bless and impact many more lives.We count on your support to do more.

“…for my Father has given them to me, and he is more powerful than anyone else. No one can snatch them from the Father’s hand.” John 10:29 NLT

Dear friend, strife is not your friend. It distracts you and steals your focus. Every time you respond to strife, you let someone else determine the course of your life. By living a life of strife, you unintentionally ‘follow’ someone steadily without even realizing it.

God is committed to bringing to pass every vision or dream that He inspires.

He is the Giver of great dreams. He is the Builder of great visions. He gives kingdoms and He establishes kings.

If you believe you have a big dream from God to accomplish and you sometimes wonder how it’s going to be done…Relax because God is at work in you- to birth those great dreams.
