Today’s Verse:
"He must become greater; I must become less." - John 3:30
Prayer for Today :
Heavenly Father,
You must increase, You must increase Your authority and influence among people, so that Your words may continue to spread until it extends to all the world.
Some people do not understand what "I must decrease" mean. It is simple, Jesus didn't come to form a private party, He didn't come to set up a SECRET religion and He didn't come for His teaching to cease after the teaching has reached everyone. So, when we try to minister people or to spread God's words, we must remember to set boundaries with them, we must remind them that everything comes from God, and we must be caution in controlling our seld esteem, understanding that we are doing works in the honour of God, but not of our own.
What is success? So are we looking for a pat on the head from God and says "Good job" when someone turn to Christ? He will be surely glad if someone hears us and follow Jesus, but not to follow us! He will be surely glad if someone see some qualities in us which cause them to fall in love with God, but not us!
Father, make us good stewards, allow us to say to You one day that "Father, I've done what You called me to do."
In Christ's glorious Name we pray, Amen.
