the world’s greatest man

Wednesday, June 18th, 2008

How does God measure the greatness of man?

The world’s greatest man –

- admits his mistakes & weaknesses

It is very common that men are afraid to ask for forgiveness. Very seldom they say “I’m sorry”. This is all because of pride. Time will come God will expose their sin. If your heart is full of sin, you cannot be happy. Your heart feels heavy. Confess to God. Open up. Repent.

Do you admit your weaknesses or you try to cover it up? If you continue pretending, you will never overcome your weaknesses. Do not be afraid to confess your sins for it is there that you will be free. Admit. Do not worry. God doesn’t keep a record of wrong. God’s love is unconditional.

- finds his strength on his knees

Prayer is our means of communicating with God. A great man finds his strength on God through prayer. The world’s greatest man prays. He finds his strength on his knees.

Our battle is a spiritual battle may it be our finances, work, or health. So lift everything up to God. After all God controls everything. Praying is showing our humility before God.

- seeks God’s way and courageously follow it

Do we seek God’s way or our own way? God looks at someone who seeks Him and follows Him, not his own way. May be right now you are seeking God but something is bothering you, a situation or may be yourself. Then its time to repent and surrender yourself to God. Temptations are everywhere but if we continue in seeking God then everything will be fine. Do not give up. Do not compete with the world but please God.

Seeking God is our daily responsibility. One way of doing it is through our daily times with God. Our quiet time with Him. Sing. Read the bible. Have a deep talk with Him.

Have you found the world’s greatest man? If yes, you are blessed. Take care of him. If you haven’t found the world’s greatest man yet, then keep praying and patiently wait. He must still be out there, fixing everything for God’s perfect timing.
