This message has to do with approaching the things of God, and how we ought to do that. --Principles in approaching the things of God-- Don't ever put yourself in a place of honor. Let God do that-- Approach the worship service with your eyes on the Lord, and how you can please and honor him, rather than what you need to do to feel better-- Have a sober opinion of yourself. No man should think of himself more highly than he ought to think. . . -Don't think you are better than you really are. Be honest in your evaluation of yourselves, measuring yourselves by the faith God has given us.- How much faith do you really have------ Don't take advantage of the Liberty of the Spirit -- Don't pride yourself on being -right- -- Trust but verify-- Be willing to wait on the Lord.-o If he has burdened you with something. If He has placed something in your heart. HE will bring it to pass in His own good time-- Nothing of eternal value is accomplished in our own strength
