Get Off Your High Horses, There’s A Better Ride Available

“He has showed you, O man, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you but to do justly, and to love kindness and mercy, and to humble yourself and walk humbly with your God?”. To act justly means to walk uprightly with the teachings and precepts of the Lord in mind. We always have a choice as to how we want to present ourselves. There’s only one chance for a first impression. Your witness to others can make them or break them in some cases. There are people who look up to you and you’d want them to learn the better part of how you can be. Fake it till you faith it. We always start out dry in whatever our unwanted tasks may be, but after some time we really get into it knowing it’s the Lord’s will concerning us. There’s always a deep down desire to please God in our hearts, it’s just always being squashed by life’s struggles and issues. To love mercy we must be Christ inside minded. The Lord was merciful towards us when we were His enemies. We can let some things go and not yield to the temptation of going off on somebody. Show mercy and mercy will be shown back to you. Walking humbly is related to showing mercy. Can’t have one without the other. It is the meek that shall inherit the kingdom of God. The encouragement today is to basically get off our high horses of pride and get on the train of humility that leads to victorious living.
