IT IS JESUS NOT YOU


IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: IT IS JESUS NOT YOU

TEXT: "Then he broke the loaves and gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the crowds” (Matthew 14:19).

Jesus works the miracle.
The disciples distribute the food.

Don’t get that backwards.
We don’t work miracles. Jesus does.
When you get busy handing out the food, don’t put on airs or get the big head or think, "Look at me. I’m doing something great.” No, you didn’t do anything great. If anything great was done, Jesus did it.
Don’t take credit for what Jesus does.
Take the bread and pass it out to the hungry people.
That’s our job.
Let Jesus get the credit.
You’re the servant. He’s the Son of God.
Always helps to keep that straight.

When we ascribe the glory due to Jesus to ourselves, we are putting a stop to the miracle, we are telling God that we are Ingrate and we are taking what is rightfully belong to him.
It amazed me when I see pastors, prophets and church leaders using the word "I" I did it, many Christians this days has turn their SERVANT of God to god, about the way they will package their testimony to gain the attention, and the kind of undue and meaningless appellation accorded to the preacher.

Brethren, it's good to honour the Lord's servants with respect to God in their life, but stop making them God.
The miracle done is from God and not from any man,

Song... All glory must be to the Lord... For he is worthy of our praise, no man on earth should give glory to himself... All glory must be to the Lord.

LET US PRAY
AS YOU ACCORD THE GLORY AND PRAISES TO GOD ALMIGHTY, HE WILL CONTINUE TO BLESS YOU MORE AND MORE IN JESUS NAME AMEN.
