THEME: GET DOWN ON YOUR KNEES!

TEXT: [MSB] JAMES 4:10

Get down on your knees before the Master; it's the only way you'll get on your feet.

The only way you can get up on your feet is to get down on your knees. Getting down on your knees before God is what clearly shows your absolute dependence on Him as the only source where you can find solace and succour. God knows how to get you back on your feet in all that you do when you come to Him on your knees. Coming to God on your knees is a sign that you acknowledge Him for who He is and that He should go ahead and present Himself as He is in your life. God is a lifter of men and He won't lift you until you make yourself feel very insignificant in His presence. Your life's significance is in your insignificant feeling in God's presence.

When you're in God's presence, you're not expected to show yourself but for God to show Himself. In God's presence, all that matters is Him and not you. A minstrel once said in one of His songs that; "Those who will win must know how to bow before their Maker." The value of your life and the impact of your life can only come alive when you get down on your knees before God. God doesn't make the lives of those who make themselves significance in His presence significant because He is the one sitting on the seat of authority to choose who to be significant in life and who to be insignificant. God chooses significant men only when they are on their knees and not when they are on their feet.

You have to get down on your knees so that your whole life can get back on its feet. Every issue you're having concerning your life is solely because you're yet to get on knees. You'll never be able to see your life and all that has been committed into your hands grow as they ought to until you decrease for God to increase. You definitely have nothing to prove about yourself where God has everything to prove about Himself. God is your lifter and you'll have to bow before Him in order to lifted up. It's time to bow before God with your messy life, with that crumbling marriage, with that ministry that seems to have made you stepped out of His perfect will for your life, etc. God wants to bring everything about you back on their feet and that's what'll definitely happen when you get down on your knees before Him.

PRAYER: Father, I thank You for Your Word. Now that I know that coming to God on your knees is a sign that you acknowledge Him for who He is and that He should go ahead and present Himself as He is in your life. Please Lord, help me to get down on my knees and bow down my whole life before you so that You can be pleased enough to get me back on my feet with a dignifying lifting in Jesus Christ name. 

Stay Blessed.
