God Who Exalts Us

    Wait on the Lord, And keep His way, And He shall exalt you to inherit the land - Psalm 37:34.

               God will exalt us to inherit the land when we wait on Him and keep His ways. The Lord will lift us up in life when we humble ourselves under His mighty hands. Humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time - 1 Peter 5:6. God exalts us before the sight of all people around us. The Lord spoke to Joshua: Today I will begin to exalt you in the sight of all Israel, so they will know that I will be with you just as I was with Moses - Joshua 3:7.
                  The Almighty God came down to earth and He humbled Himself and was obedient to the point of death on the cross. So, the Father God exalted Lord Jesus Christ above every person and above everything in this world and in Heaven. The Father has exalted Him, that every knee should bow down at the name of Jesus Christ and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is the Lord - Philippians 2:9-11.
                God will exalt us in His time and so let us wait on the Lord. Though Joseph was cast into prison, God exalted him as in charge of the whole land of Egypt. So Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I hereby put you in charge of the whole land of Egypt” - Genesis 41:41. He made him ride in the heights of the earth, that he might eat the produce of the fields; He made him draw honey from the rock, and oil from the flinty rock - Deuteronomy 32:13.
                                           
PRAYER: Dear Lord, You are the Lord who exalts us. Help us to humble ourselves under Your mighty hand till You exalt us in due time. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
