Scripture: Mat 16:20 Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was Jesus the Christ.
Observation: Jesus is the Christ, God on Earth... and yet he didn't want his disciples going and telling everyone that. Jesus had many titles in the various old testement scriptures that prophesied his time on earth, he chose "son of man", the most humble of all to refer to himself with.
Application: Humility is a precious commodity. It is more powerful that they most persuasive speech. It is more beautiful that the finest sunset. It is more fragrant that the finest perfume. Let others discover who you are, rather than developing strategies to market yourself.
Prayer: Dear Jesus, let us be clothed in your humility. Let us lay down our life, take up our cross, and follow you. Let us not look to the left or the right, but keep our eyes on you at all times. Amen
