Let God Take You Up

Proverbs 18:11-12


"The rich man’s wealth is his strong city,
And like a high wall in his own esteem.

¹² Before destruction the heart of a man is haughty,
And before honor is humility."

Verse 1 says, "The rich man’s wealth is his strong city, And like a high wall in his own esteem."  When we don't let God build our empires, we become inhuman and compare people to ourselves.  Sizing them up, attaching a point system to them.  Then deal with them as we please.  This automatically shuts the process of true love down.  Because it was never based on it from the beginning.  God is love.  And when we look into His word, and diligently give ourselves to Him.  He orders our conduct and how it is to perform, when conversing with one another.  If we base our lives, feelings, and emotions, around God's feelings and emotions.  We will know how to come out from among them.  That we may continue in this race.  (Malachi 3:18)  "Then you shall again discern Between the righteous and the wicked, Between one who serves God And one who does not serve Him."  I hear people say, don't judge me, only God can judge me.  Well I'll tell you, if you don't judge your surroundings and those in it through Gods' eyes.  Don't be mad, when He chastises you for your mistake in identity.  We cannot let our world determine our happiness and peace in God.  We cannot let them sidetrack us from our blessings and eternity.  Our bible is a dream come true.  Loving God is here, to love us and please us.  Establish us and give us life and life more abundantly.  He wants to release a power within our lives, that there will be no turning back.  Money, power, and fame, has blinded our world, satan, its orchestrator.  Jesus tells us,  how hard it will be for a rich man to make it into heaven.  Our mustard seeds of faith and belief, must be planted.  Then we must build on the Rock of salvation.  So when the storms and test come, we may stand.  And keep standing on the word of God.  God says, find joy in His story.  Then dance on the devil's head and receive your inheritance.  Verse 12 says,"Before destruction the heart of a man is haughty, And before honor is humility."  Our world believes it's coming to an end.  Probably because of all its dirty deeds.  However, if it does or if it doesn't.  Humble yourself, and let God take you up. 

(2Corinthians 8:9-12)  " For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that you through His poverty might become rich.  And in this I give advice: It is to your advantage not only to be doing what you began and were desiring to do a year ago;  but now you also must complete the doing of it; that as there was a readiness to desire it, so there also may be a completion out of what you have.  For if there is first a willing mind, it is accepted according to what one has, and not according to what he does not have." 

Blessings to all who let God esteem you,
