LIKE BABES - AWAY WITH PRIDE

Psalm 8:2
Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou ordained strength because of thine enemies, that thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger.

One of the biggest challenge of man is pride. The very thing the bible teaches us brought Satan down.

Many who were called of God allowed themselves to become so self conscious that they attempt to take God's place. "beware"

Psalm 8:4
What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?

When we say we must grow as believers, our maturity is not the growth of pride but in faith and in the knowledge of God. However in wrath we must remain babes.

Not man of God, but children of God! Selah

Matthew 18:3-4
And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

This is why when we come to the Heavenly Father through His Son, the Messiah, we surrender all pride

Philippians 3:7-8
But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ.
Yea doubtless, and I count all things [but] loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them [but] dung, that I may win Christ,

For all that we have or know outside of Christ are not eternal, but in Christ our eternal is taking care of.

For God made man a little lower than angels (elohim), and gave him dominion here on earth. We must not err by seeking to dominate other men or seat in God's place.

Yes when we are born again we take our place by Christ in heavenly places. Remember not for you alone but all who believe.

Who is to be glorified? The Heavenly Father.

Psalm 8:9
O LORD our Lord, how excellent [is] thy name in all the earth!

May we never be carried away.

He calls us blessed.

Love
