Many people take pride similarly in the work of God. They are ignorant of God’s word, and think it is old fashioned. Instead they take in their degrees and their philosophy, and to impress the crowds they use worldly means. They do not use God’s word as they should. In preaching they use references to break up what they say, but men can never go against God’s word. God uses different methods to break our pride in culture, in nationality and education it only through humility and full obedience that we can build the house of God: only through acknowledging the headship and kingship of God. To show this, the Lord Jesus Christ entered Jerusalem on the colt of an ass, as a humble person and not in all His glory. We find this colt of an ass walking on garments and honor given to it.
How that colt was honored! We have the same honor when we uphold the Lord Jesus in the right way. We in ourselves have no honor as God’s servants but when we obey the Lord fully, whenever we go we are showered with Love and kindness in so many ways. If, however, we start kicking like an ordinary colt we also will be beaten.
Today's calendar Bible verse:
“Mine eyes are ever towards the Lord”(Psalms 25:15)
