00:31 Today, I want to pray about humility.
00:33 Humility is being comfortable with who you are in the Lord 00:37 and therefore putting others first. 00:39 The picture of humility in the Bible 00:41 is one of a strong person, one who loves others. 00:44 puts it this way, 00:48 "Do nothing out of selfish ambition 00:50 or vain conceit, 00:51 but in humility consider others better than yourself." 00:55 Humility is also recognizing 00:57 that we need God's help knowing that 00:59 we can't fully understand 01:01 or do anything in our own strength. 01:04 Humility is thanking God for our talents, for our gifts, 01:07 for all the things that He's given us, 01:09 and we give Him credit for our accomplishments. 01:13 2 Chronicles 7:14 says, 01:16 "If My people who are called by My name 01:18 shall humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, 01:20 and turn from their wicked ways, 01:22 then I will hear from heaven, 01:24 and will forgive their sins and will heal their land." 01:28 What an incredible promise 01:30 from an incredible Heavenly Father. 01:33 I love this song that 01:36 talks about being unworthy. 01:41 Unworthy am I of the grace 01:47 That He gave 01:48 Unworthy to hold 01:52 To His hand 01:56 Amazed that a King 02:00 Would reach down to a slave 02:04 This love 02:06 I cannot understand 02:13 Unworthy, 02:17 Unworthy, 02:21 A beggar 02:25 In bondage and alone 02:31 But He made me worthy 02:36 And now by His grace 02:40 His mercy has made me 02:46 His own 02:52 Dear Heavenly Father, thank You so much 02:55 for the gift that You gave us in sending Your only Son. 02:59 Thank You for the selfless life He lived 03:01 and for being our example. 03:04 Lord, today I pray that You will work 03:06 upon each one of our hearts, 03:08 that we might be the people that You call us to be. 03:11 Help us to live a life of humility, 03:14 and seek to serve others rather than to be served. 03:17 I pray that in everything we do, 03:19 we will give the glory and honor to You 03:22 so that those around us will be drawn to You. 03:25 Let us not seek to please self, 03:27 but help us keep our minds focused 03:29 and our heart stayed on You. 03:32 Keep us humble, 03:33 this I pray in Jesus' name. 03:35 Amen. 03:40 Dear Heavenly Father, 03:41 I just ask for a special dose of humility 03:44 in these last days. 03:45 Father, dying to self is a daily struggle. 03:49 And it's something that we all must conquer, 03:52 but we don't have to conquer it alone 03:54 and we can't conquer it alone. 03:56 So I ask that You would humble us, Father, 03:58 that You would help us to continue to die to self 04:02 on a daily basis 04:03 and help us to follow the pattern that Jesus 04:07 and the example that Jesus Christ 04:10 has set forth for us. 04:11 Thank You for hearing this prayer. 04:13 In Jesus' name I pray. Amen. 04:18 My sorrow and my sickness 04:24 Laid stripes on His back 04:28 My sins caused the blood 04:32 That was shed 04:37 My faults and my failures 04:41 Have woven the crown Of thorns, 04:48 That were wore on His head 04:55 Unworthy, 04:58 Unworthy, 05:02 A beggar 05:06 In bondage and alone 05:12 But He made me worthy 05:17 And now by His grace 05:22 His mercy 05:25 Has made me 05:28 His own 05:33 "The lofty looks of man shall be humbled, 05:35 the haughtiness of men shall be bound down, 05:38 and the Lord alone shall be exalted in that day." 05:42 Father, God, we exalt You today 05:45 because You are good, 05:46 because You are holy, because You are God, 05:50 because You are our Creator and our Redeemer, 05:54 and our Sustainer. 05:56 Thank You for who You are. 05:58 And in contrast to that, 06:00 Lord, we repent, in dust, in ashes, 06:04 realizing that our righteousness 06:07 is as filthy rags. 06:09 Father, today as I go throughout my day, 06:13 I pray that You would reveal to me 06:15 any area in my heart where there is pride, 06:19 any area that has not been fully given to You, 06:23 would You give me Your spirit of humility, 06:26 and grace, and love?
