TO GOD BE ALL THE GLORY

Because we are saved by God's grace (unmerited by us), that means whatever good that we do in this life, God deserves all the credit!  It is His salvation!  It is His working!  It is His power!  To God be the glory!  Knowing this, here are seven reasons we should walk in humility with our God (Mic. 6:8)!

*  "But as many as received Him (Jesus), to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His name:  which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God" (Jn. 1:12-13).

*  For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it (salvation) is the gift of God:  not of works, lest any man should boast.  For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them" (Eph. 2:8-10).

*  "And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work" (2 Cor. 9:8).

* "But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in My name, He shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

* "But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth" (Acts 1:8).

*  "Being confident of this very thing, that He which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ" (Phil. 1:6).

*  "For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of His good pleasure" (Phil. 2:13).

There is no place for pride, arrogance, superiority, or self-righteousness in God's child!
