Humility & Meekness : The Power to Overcome.

"Do ye think that the scripture saith

in vain, The spirit that dwelleth in us

lusteth to envy?

But he giveth more grace.

Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the

proud, but giveth grace unto the

humble." (James 4:5-6, KJV)

"Wherefore lay apart all filthiness

and superfluity of naughtiness, and

receive with meekness the engrafted

word, which is able to save your

souls." (James 1:21, KJV)

"Humble yourselves in the sight of

the Lord, and he shall lift you up.

" (James 4:10, KJV)

The above verses actually talk about the Grace our LORD GOD has for we

that humble ourselves before HIM; "the engrafted word" which is able

to save our soul.

As we continue in this age of Grace, we are not supposed to misuse our

liberty. We shouldn't let the notion of "Once saved; always saved"

exists in our mind. Of course, the world isn't a safe refuge to abode

ones hope. So, how do we overcome the world? How do we hail freedom

from the world's influence? How do we live a better life? The answer

to the questions is this: Meekness and Humility to the Master of the

Universe. 

The Bible tells us in James 2:7 (KJV): "Submit yourselves therefore to

God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you."

In the above verse, we can see that the submission of oneself to God

works out sufficient grace". Grace that will make us resist the devil

and he will flee from us, isn't that victorious?

When God is with us, NOTHING, can stand and against for what is the

devil before our mighty God?

God has not call us into uncleanness but holiness hence we should be

subjected unto His will all times. Hence, there's no limitation for

us. We can't get addicted to anything in this world because our Father

has given the power to overcome ANYTHING.

"Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may

exalt you in due time" (1 Peter 5:6, KJV). When we're subjected to Him

by Meekness of Words and with Humility applying them, His Mighty Hand

makes us triumphant! We then become more than conquerors! Nothing then

becomes impossible for us!

Conclusively, we are the Chosen generation given the Greatest Gift:

Grace. So, let's cast our cares on Him and let Him fight our battles

so that we can start winning.

May the God of Grace gives us the power to overcome as we submit

ourselves to Him, Amen.
