Day 5 of a 21 day fast
Philippians 2:6-11
6 pwho, though he was in qthe form of God, did not count equality with God ra thing to be grasped, 7 but semptied himself, by taking the form of a tservant, ubeing born in the likeness of men. 8 And being found in human form, he humbled himself by vbecoming obedient to the point of death, weven death on a cross. 9 xTherefore yGod has zhighly exalted him and bestowed on him athe name that is above every name, 10 so that at the name of Jesus bevery knee should bow, cin heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11 and devery tongue confess that Jesus Christ is eLord, to the glory of God the Father.
Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ gives us a clear picture of humility as he took on human flesh, he humbled himself and was obedient to the point of death. He emptied himself! We are emptying ourselves through this fast and denying our flesh and becoming weak but no where near the point of death.
Thank you Lord for your sacrifice and your humility that you displayed for our souls. We love you Lord Jesus. Help us to love you more today as we empty ourselves before you. Have your way in our hearts and minds today we pray, In Jesus name AMEN
