About this sermon

Andrew Wommack’s daily TV program: Gospel Truth To subscribe to Andrew’s email newsletter: http://www.awmi.net/youtube-subscribe/ This series is called Humility: God’s Path To More Grace. Unfortunately humility is not most people's goal. Andrew is teaching on humility against pride. Jesus said he was meek and lowly in heart and yet he ran out the money changers for defiling the temple. Humility needs to be redefined in our understanding today. We need to recognize that God’s kingdom operates on a different system than what this world's system operates on. 00:15 Unfortunately humility is so against our culture today. More people like to promote and exalt themselves. 01:13 Proverbs 13.10 Only by pride comes contention. Pride is not just arrogance, pride is self-centeredness. Even people that are timid and shy are very self-centered. 01:52 The Word says the ONLY way that strife comes is by pride. It's because you only think of things from your own perspective and standpoint. That is bound to cause strife. 02:40 Philippians 2.3 Let each esteem others better than themselves. We're not supposed to treat ourselves badly, it doesn't say that. It simple says to esteem or treat others even better. 3:45 When we treat others better and serve other people - God promotes us even greater ourselves. We humble ourselves and God will lift us up. 8:45 Born again Christians have a new nature within them, but they don't renew their minds. Romans 12.2 says, ...be not conformed to this world; but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. 11:00 If you're acting like it's all about you, thinking like if you don't take care of yourself nobody else will, this kind of thinking will stop the flow of God's life in you and it will never get out. 16:52 Nearly all marriage problems could be solved if you had two people that weren't all about themselves, if they love their mate more than they love themselves. 18:49 We are born selfish, it's the sin nature - so the change isn't going to happen naturally, we have to renew our minds to God's word. 21:50 We don't just one time see ourselves as selfish and change automatically. You just head in the direction of humility and every ten minutes if necessary, for the rest of your life, you're going to have a course correction. 22:15 Andrew started his journey in 1968, that's when he headed in the right direction but says he has had millions of course corrections during all these years. Changing "self" is still here and we have to deal with it. 23:00 Our humility commitment is an ongoing process. ========================================­==== Andrew Wommack Ministries http://www.awmi.net/ https://www.facebook.com/AWMinistries https://twitter.com/andrewwommack https://instagram.com/andrewwommack/ https://www.pinterest.com/andrewwommack/ ========================================­==============
