Shalom,

Today I want to share from Kenneth E. Hagin's "Faith Food" devotional. I have been so blessed by going through these again that we first went through so many years ago! And the TRUTH is still and always the same! 

Humility

Who [Christ Jesus], being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. — PHILIPPIANS 2:6-8

Christ has always existed in the form of God. But He emptied Himself
and took the form of a bond servant, being made in the likeness of men.

This suggests a distinct operation of God totally different from natural
generation: A miracle.
First, God took Christ from the Godhead in
Heaven — and then He placed Christ in the womb of a virgin to be
united with flesh in a unique conception.

Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me. — HEBREWS 10:5

God prepared a body — a special body — for this Being called the Son of God. In the Incarnation, Christ became a man!

Confession: Thank You, Jesus, for emptying Yourself and being made in the likeness of men. It was our only hope. Thank You for humbling Yourself and becoming obedient unto death; yes, even the death of the cross. And thank You, Father, for highly exalting Him, and for giving to Him the Name which is above every name. At that Name my knee does bow, and my tongue does confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father (Philippians 2:9-10).

AMEN! Here to properly praise the LORD JESUS, Who is MORE than enough for our every need and desire, are Hillsong Kids with "When The World Shakes":

Shalom in Him!
