HONOR FROM MEN

DAILY GRACE MON. 20TH FEB, 2017 HONOR FROM MEN JOHN 5: 41 Welcome to a new week. It shall be a remarkable one for you and your household. No matter what happens, it would turnout for your good in Jesus name. "I do not receive honor from men." Carefulness and watchfulness must be your watchword whenever men seek to to finish you with fake honour in life. Christ Himself said I receive not honour from men, as if He sought His own glory, and made Himself the head of a party, in obliging all to come to Him, and applaud Him. Let's consider some important lessons from here;  1.) Christ Jesus did not covet nor court the applause of men, did not in the least affect that worldly pomp and splendour in which the carnal Jews expected their Messiah to appear. He charged those whom he cured not to make him known, and withdrew from those that would have made him king.  2.)  He had not the applause of men. Instead of receiving honour from men, he received a great deal of dishonour and disgrace from men, for he made himself of no reputation. 3.)  He needed not the applause of men, it was no addition to His glory whom all the angels of God of all grace worship, nor was He any otherwise pleased with it than as it was according to His Father’s will, and for the happiness of those who, in giving honour to him, received much greater honour from him. 4.) He knew all men, Christ knew the wickedness and weakness of men.He knew what was in man, in particular persons, in the nature and race of man. We know what is done by men; Christ knows what is in them, tries the heart and the reins. This makes Christ Jesus fit to be the Saviour of men, very fit to be the physician, who has such a perfect knowledge of the patient’s state and case, temper and distemper. Beloved, do not let honor from men keep you from the path of your glory, learn  to acknowledge such honour but do not let it get into your head, because it is highly destructive to your destiny. Enjoy your day! Personal Confession: Father Lord, l receive the grace not to seek and receive honour from men in Jesus' name. Read, Reflect and rebroadcast to bless someone. God will bless you in return. Enquiries@PGM lnt'l richgracemission@gmail.com www.pentecostalgrace.blogspot.com.ng +2348058561464 +2347083069998
