Dear sisters and brothers in Christ Jesus, part of a growing repentance remnant globally,
Repentance builds us up in Christ, removing old sin strongholds, so that we fear God, not man, in these end times. Proverbs 6:16-19 sets forth the 7 abominations God hates (that's His Word).
Each one of the seven has been loosed on the planet in every nation, and you and I, already called by Him His Bride, (Ephesians 5: 25-27) are now urged by Him today (Revelation 3: 19-21) to extricate ourselves from these abominations, these demonic traps. We are to come up higher to His Word as our Rock, extricating ourselves from this wicked culture all around us. Today is the day to get ready; He is the soon-coming Bridegroom.
Today on Day One of the 21 Day Repentance journey the focus is on the number one abomination God hates: PRIDE. We all have some measure of it; if you say you don't have it, you have it!
Day one: Pride. Ask the Helper if you have pride in your life (Proverbs 6:17). Where did it first surface in you? How does it show up in your life today?
What is His replacement? Being humble. 1 Peter 5:5: Likewise you younger people, submit yourselves to your elders. Yes, all of you be submissive to one another, and be clothed with humility, for 'God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble.
Philippians 2: 3: Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself.
We learn in 1 Kings 18:36-39 that after Elijah prayed on Mt Carmel for the Lord to show the people that Lord was God in Israel, Elijah then said to Ahab: Go up, eat and drink, for there is the sound of abundance of rain. (verse 41). As Ahab went up to eat and drink, Elijah went to the top of Mt. Carmel. The Word says: " then he bowed down on the ground, and put his face between his knees." ~1 Kings 18: 42.
That to me shows REPENTANCE and removal of pride.
Elijah is a good example to follow. " Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the earth for three years and six months. Then he prayed again, and the sky poured rain and the earth produced its fruit." ~James 5: 17-18
