Lowly in mind means uneducated; not aspiring to improve self. Lowly in body means slavish. But lowly in heart means humble, not one that will exalt self. You need to understand that God wants to work on your heart; He wants you to have Jesus\u2019 kind of heart.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cMeek\u201d is not the same as \u201cweak\u201d. Meekness is that condition where a man has come to a place to accept that the choice of God for his life is the best for him; \u201cWhat my Father is doing with me is what is good for me\u201d. It has nothing to do with weakness, it simply means: \u201cI come to find out that nobody is wiser than my Father, and whatever choice He makes over me is based on what He has seen that I can\u2019t see. So I go with His choice.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The greatest battle for the human race was not fought on the cross of Calvary but at Gethsemane. There, Jesus prayed three times and said, \u201cFather, if it is possible, let this cup pass from me.\u201d But God said \u201cNo\u201d. He prayed the second time and the Father still said no. At the third time, He said, \u201cFather, not as I will but Thy will be done.\u201d Jesus submitted to the will of the Father using His faith.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The greatest battle for the human race was about whose will would prevail \u2013 Jesus\u2019 will or the Father\u2019s will. The greatest battle in your life is not the battle against sickness or poverty; it is the battle against whose will prevails: your will or God\u2019s will? Anytime your will doesn\u2019t align with God\u2019s will, like Jesus, you must learn to say, \u201cNot as I will but as You will Lord\u201d<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"quote-simple\">\n<p><strong>PRI\u00c8RE:<\/strong> Like Jesus, I receive the courage to surrender my will to the will of the Father.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\t\t<div class=\"tie-padding  has-padding-left has-padding-right\" style=\"padding-left:5%; padding-right:5%; padding-top:0; padding-bottom:0;\">\n\n\t\t\t<p><\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\"><strong>LA BIBLE EN UN AN :<\/strong>\nGenesis 26:17-27:46, Matthew 9:1-17, Psalm 10:16-18, Proverbs 3:9-10<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-verse\"><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>esus wants to make us to be meek and lowly in heart, not lowly in body or mind.
