BASIC SCRIPTURE: ROMANS 12:9-18 – THE BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: READ HERE today’s passage (your time alone with your maker) – CLICK HERE A music professor with a well-trained voice usually sang the major male solo parts in the choir of a large church. A young man named Bob with no training sometimes took a few shorter solos. As the choir director prepared for Christmas cantata, she felt Bob’s voice and style made him a natural for the lead role.

However, she didn’t know how she could give it to him without fending the older man. Her anxiety was unnecessary. The professor had the same thoughts as she did, and he told her that Bob should take the part. He continued to sing faithfully in the chorus and was a source of much encouragement to Bob. Wow! What an example of humility. Rick Warren said: “True humility is not thinking less of yourself; it is thinking of yourself less.” A professor of music stepping down for an untrained singer! He saw the good in the man and he did his best to encourage him. This is leadership indeed. Every good teacher wants his student to be greater than him. Mahatma Gandhi opined: “It is unwise to be too sure of one’s own wisdom.
Our Daily Manna 9 April 2022 – THE MUSIC PROFESSOR: HUMILITY IS NOT HUMILIATION! It is healthy to be reminded that the strongest might weaken and the wisest might err.” The average human being is selfish, but people who can set aside selfish ambition and genuinely seek the good of others have an attitude that pleases God! The professor was happy to see the man elevated above him. Vs. I0 of today’s Word says: “Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour prefering one another.”
PREFER ONE ANOTHER THIS YEAR AND YOU WILL NEVER GO DOWN! Then Vs. 16 says: “Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits.” Humility is a DIVINE SURPRISE SECRET! In God’s agenda, THE WAY UP IS DOWN!
The high and mighty have been brought low due to high-mindedness. Do you want to Stay up, or take some people with you on your way up? Humility is not humiliation. for God resists the proud, and gives grace to the humble (1 Peter 5:5).
Learn from the music professor who saw a natural voice that was better than his professionally trained voice, and he did not allow his pride to get in the way. You will go places this year. Let humility be your watchword and demotion will bow to you! Pray seriously now! Our Daily Manna 9 April 2022 – THE MUSIC PROFESSOR: HUMILITY IS NOT HUMILIATION!
