Insights (Humilty and The Fear Of The Lord)
Today we see the three things that make a successful life. Anyone who has all of these would be deemed to have a great life. Unfortunately, so many people never enter into all these. It's either they have one or two but not all.
Not many rich are honorable, and not many honorable who are rich enjoy a long life. Also, not many who are honorable and live long do have riches. Again, not all who live long have either riches or honor. But God wants us to have all this to live a satisfying and well-pleasing life.
He is lending to anyone who cares and desires to have this full life of absolute fulfillment to try out doing two simple things.
1. Humility
Before destruction the heart of a man is haughty, And before honor is humility.
Proverbs 18:12 NKJV
The humble is the friend of God. You can be sure God will not withhold good things from him. Certain such individuals will enjoy the influence and riches of God.
The first form of humility God wants anyone to exhibit is to surrender his or her life to Him for salvation. This means that you must be willing to accept the plans of God for the salvation of mankind through Christ Jesus.
You may not understand everything but when you drop all your knowledge and ability to cling unto God for His unmerited favor and you are saved. Only those who are humble get saved.
God in turn will give you eternal life and then prolong your days. With a long life will He satisfy you and show you His salvation every day.
Humility is first of the heart. Pride destroys faster than any form of sin. When you are humble in the sight of the Lord, He will promote you before men. A proud man will have God to deal with because He resists the proud but gives grace to the humble.
The second form of humility is towards other people. It is the fragrance of your humility before the Lord that will reflect in your outer life among people. You will truly be a shining example of the humble nature of God.
A humble and meek man can not die anyhow. Such a fellow makes very few enemies. Even when there is a plot against him it will be exposed. Those who gang up against the meek are in trouble no matter how close they are.
The Bible recorded that Moses was the meekest or humblest man on earth. This status carries divine coverage. When Aron and Miriam spoke against him, they found themselves in God's net.
2. The Fear Of The Lord
Those who fear the Lord have the favor of God. Not those who do eye service but people who deeply revere God because of His greatness and power.
To fear the Lord is to love life and prevent death.
The fear of the Lord prolongs days, But the years of the wicked will be shortened.
Proverbs 10:27 NKJV
A man who fears the Lord needs to fear man. You are guaranteed divine protection, wisdom, knowledge, understanding, honor, wealth, and many more benefits when you fear the Lord.
In short, to fear the Lord is to do what He wants you to do at all times. This will tend to all the blessings of life.
Do you want riches to enjoy the benefits of life, honor among men, and long life to have a lasting legacy? Try these two methods of greatness that God has given and you can never miss out on any of the benefits.
