RHEMA  11/06/06  HUMBLE YOURSELF

HEARD:  Having said it all, just rest. 

HEARD:  Low bridge.

(Humility, bowing low.)

Job 22:25-30 NKJV

Yes, the Almighty will be your gold and your precious silver; For then you will have your delight in the Almighty, and lift up your face to God. You will make your prayer to Him, He will hear you, and you will pay your vows. You will also declare a thing, and it will be established for you; So light will shine on your ways. When they cast you down, and you say, 'Exaltation will come!' Then He will save the humble person.  He will even deliver one who is not innocent; Yes, he will be delivered by the purity of your hands."

PARABLE:  As a child, I used to go with my family to some caves.  Whenever the guide would come to a place where you had to duck, or bow low in order to pass through without hitting your head, he would call out, “Low Bridge!”  Then each person when they came to that spot would call out Low Bridge until all passed through safely. 

It is a time of deep humility, where the enemy has taken God’s people to the court room of accusation.  We overcome by the blood of Jesus and by the Word of our testimony.  It is a humbling time where we speak God’s Word and how it applies to our lives and hearts and then just bow low, and rest.  The scripture says, having done all, STAND.  Well, in this season, the Lord is saying, having done all, Bow LOW and rest.

Rev 12:10-11 NKJV

Then I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, "Now salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren, who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down. And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.

Phil 2:5-11 NKJV

Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross. Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Eph 4:1-3 NLT

Be humble and gentle . Be patient with each other, making allowance for each other's faults because of your love. Always keep yourselves united in the Holy Spirit, and bind yourselves together with peace.
