Philippians 2:5(Let this mind be in
you, which was in Christ Jesus: 6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not
robbery to be equal with God: 7 But made himself of no reputation and took upon
him the form of a servant; and was made in the likeness of men: 8 And being
found in fashion as a man, he humble himself and became obedient unto death,
even the death of the cross. 9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him and
given him a name which is above every name: 10 That at the name of Jesus every
knee should bow of things in heaven, and things in earth and things under the
earth).
Obedience is the master key if we
really want our name to command respect. The bible said that Jesus Christ
obeyed God to the end; even unto death. Jesus says, John 8:29(And he that
sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those
things that please him). We are to blame for whatever comes out of our
lives, not location, not our parents nor our gender. It does matter whether
female or male; the most important thing is that you have a name and it is your
responsibility to add value to that name and make it worth it. When Jesus
Christ met with John the Baptist for his baptism his parents were not with him;
he went alone. We really need to grow up if not our story will not change. No
destiny that has no challenges but in those challenges lies our change of
levels. They are meant for our promotion not demotion. The scripture recorded
that Samson disobeyed his parents all through. If he will not obey his parents
whom the Angel appeared to before he was conceived how then would he obey
the spirit of God. Samson made a wreck of his glorious destiny because of
disobedience. Jesus Christ adds value to his name because of obedience. Both
were tempted but they had different results. Satan the tempter promised Jesus
the whole world and everything in it, which includes all the Delilah but he
refused because he knew who he was; that by resisting the temptation everything
will become his, even Satan will bow to his authority. If you don’t know the
truth about your identity Satan will deceive you and promise you what is
already yours. I pray for you to receive grace to resist temptation in
Jesus name. In this kingdom where we belong, you cannot bribe your way to the
top. The only way to be great is to serve. Jesus said to the disciple that the
greatest among them is the one who will minister to others (Matthew
20:20-28). That even him the son of man came to minister to others not be
ministered unto. That’s humility. In the circular world, you pay for service
rendered to you but in this kingdom God is the one that pays you for the
service you rendered to people by adding color to your name. We need to humble
ourselves so that God can lift us up. Moses' name commands respect because he
humble himself and obey God’s instruction. God said that Moses is the meekest
man that ever lives. Number 12:3(Now the man Moses was very meek, above all
the men which were upon the face of the earth). His greatness was linked to
his meekness. Matthew 5:5(Blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the
earth). Psalm 147:6(The LORD lifteth up the meek: he casted the wicked down to
the ground). The LORD will lift you up and you will be great in Jesus name.
Your life will not change until you encounter a greater force and no force is
greater than Jesus. Friends, in case you have not accepted him as your Lord and
savior, here is another opportunity.
Lord Jesus, I come to you today, I am a
sinner, and I cannot help myself, forgive me my sins, and cleanse me with your
precious blood. Deliver me from sin and Satan to serve the living God. Lord
Jesus, I accept you as my Lord and savior. Now I know I am Born Again, Amen.
