“How enriched are they who find their strength in the Lord; within their hearts are the highways of holiness!”Psalms 84:5 TPT
We do not need to be told, “You are strong!” We need to be told, “Your God is strong, you have become strong because you trust in Him!” Our ego needs deflating! Pride needs destroying!
Satan’s sin was pride. He knows it well and tempts us with it. Last week fellow students praised me because I was studying Nepali at 71. I accepted their praise but it is God who enables me. I said, ‘ the ability to do something is all in the mind!’ I stole His glory! I repented, but am aware that it is easy to accept glory when it really belongs to another, the Lord of glory.
Within humility and trust are found the highways of holiness. Holiness is something I seek. I will find it in humility, and truthful confession. Amen!
