Bible Explorer for the Young (Ezekiel - Part 2)নমুনা

We Are Just Mere Mortal Romans 1:21 For although they knew God, they neither glorified Him as God nor gave thanks to Him, but their thinking became futile, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Pride has been a source of problems from time to time. Through the prophet Ezekiel, God warned the leader of the powerful coastal city of Tyre against his pride. He said the king’s pride would result in his downfall. It is true that hard work, skill and perseverance contribute to your success at school. But in addition to all that, there are other things that contribute to your success such as favorable opportunities, unexpected circumstances, perfect timing and miracles. Those things are beyond our control as humans. So, it is not right to boast on our own strength in our success. We don't have the power to control all the circumstances, possibilities, people around us and other events on which our success depends. All these things are under God’s power and control. He is God while we are mere mortal. We should be thanking God for our achievement and success. Continue trusting Him to provide for us, to lead and guide us. Have a daily encounter with God so that we become more delightedly humble, and we will get rid of our own pride. Prayer Dear God, the more I get to know You, the more I understand that everything I have is from You alone. I worship humbly before You, Jesus. Amen.
