TOPIC: CAN GOD TRUST YOU?
Memory Verse: Luke 16:10
“10 He who is faithful in what is least is faithful also in much; and he who is unjust in what is least is unjust also in much.”
Bible Reading: Num. 12:3-9
3 (Now the man Moses was very humble, more than all men who were on the face of the earth.) 4 Suddenly the LORD said to Moses, Aaron, and Miriam, “Come out, you three, to the tabernacle of meeting!” So the three came out. 5 Then the LORD came down in the pillar of cloud and stood in the door of the tabernacle, and called Aaron and Miriam. And they both went forward. 6 Then He said, “Hear now My words: If there is a prophet among you, I, the LORD, make Myself known to him in a vision; I speak to him in a dream. 7 Not so with My servant Moses; He is faithful in all My house. 8 I speak with him face to face, Even plainly, and not in dark sayings; And he sees the form of the LORD. Why then were you not afraid to speak against My servant Moses?” 9 So the anger of the LORD was aroused against them, and He departed.
HUMILITY ATTRACT GOD’S TRUST
Yesterday we discussed about Servanthood as a trust. Today, we will be talking about humility as what attract God’s trust. Humility, in another word, meekness is a very scarce virtue even in Christianity. To be humble is not what you rehearse, it’s what you work on and this go a long way to attract God’s trust towards you.
Many Christians and even Servants of God lack this virtue and this is visible when they get to a higher pedestrian in ministry and work places. Remember, James 4:6 said,
“6 But He gives more grace. Therefore He says: “God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble.”
Aaron and Miriam were Moses Elder brother and sister. The knew Him well, they brought him up and trained him but they never knew he was trained by God to be a prophet, why? Because He was a humble man. God trust a humble man (even when he is not anointed ) than a proud anointed Man of God. God told Moses’ siblings, that, He trust Moses more than other prophets. He is a man that speaks with God face to face, a Servant and a Faithful one indeed. These shows how trusted He was to God. God was angry with his siblings which led to Miriam having leprosy.
God can’t fight for the untrusted one. They were all prophet but He is fighting for one of the prophet against the others. Can God trust you to that level with your humility? God never gave Moses the time to respond to the allegations against him, He spoke for him, why? Humility. The scripture called him the most meekest man on the surface of the earth. How humble are you? When you are nobody, are you humble? When God take you to that level you desire, will you retain that humility?
Do you want to be trusted by God? Be humble always.
Enjoy Your Day.
