The Greatest In The Kingdom Of Heaven

“Therefore whoever humbles himself as this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. (Matthew 18:4 NKJV)

It is only our level of humility that will determine the level of grace that we will operate in. Humility leads to all sorts of good fruits like prayer, worship, thanksgiving, praise, petition, respect, love and reverence for God.

Humility makes us obedient and absolutely dependent on God’s word and power. Moses was the humblest man of his time and Jesus was gentle and humble in Spirit. Today, they are great in the Kingdom of God. It is only our level of humility that will determine our position in the Kingdom of Heaven. May we humble ourselves before our great God, and fellow humans, today and always.

  • Why would we need to add our penance to God’s unlimited Grace? Does our cup not run over? Why would your mansion be bigger than mine? Levels? You mean like ranks? Clergy? Those are not used in the New Testament Church. Did Peter try to classify Jesus as equal to Moses and Elijah? Who corrected Peter?

      I did not talk about mansions, penance or compared Jesus to Moses, You added all that by yourself. I only quoted the word of God. Jesus is our example in everything and He was very humble so God exalted Him above everything.

      The post did not compare Jesus to Moses or anyone else but mentioned them as examples. Jesus is our perfect example in everything including humility. He was not lazy on earth just because He was the son of God. We are to imitate Him in everything including His humility and not take God’s grace for granted.

      Jesus said, “Therefore whoever humbles himself as this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.” (Matthew 18:4 NKJV)

      Those are the words of Jesus not mine. I always restrict my post to the Scriptures so that I will not argue about it.

      Thank you so much for reading and responding. Blessings 🙏❤️

  • Yes humility and humbleness are very difficult to imbibe. Humbleness and humility can’t be obtained overnight. Only Christ can help us to be humble like him. Nice post. Thanks Laura. Please continue to write and post. 😇🙏🌹👍
