Humility
GTM – Humility

Transcript:
Join Ray Murray in this profound exploration of a spiritual attribute absolutely essential for every believer: humility. As Mr. Murray explains, direct from New Zealand, humility is inextricably linked to conversion, and Christ Himself stated that without these qualities, seeing the Kingdom of God is impossible. Ray Murray delves deep into scripture, beginning with Matthew 18, where Jesus calls us to become as little children, emphasizing that true greatness in Heaven comes through humbling oneself.
Throughout this insightful message, Ray Murray examines key passages, including Isaiah 57, revealing how God dwells with the contrite and humble, and 2 Chronicles 7, highlighting God's promise to hear and heal when His people humble themselves and pray. Mr. Murray also powerfully contrasts humility with its destructive opposite, pride, drawing potent lessons from Ezekiel 28 (the fall of the Prince of Tyre, representing Satan's influence) and Genesis 3 (humanity's original deception through pride). Ray explores the critical 'battle for our minds' discussed in 2 Corinthians 10 and the ultimate emptiness of a life lived without God, as detailed in Ecclesiastes.
With further compelling references to Revelation 3 (the lukewarm Laodicean church) and Christ's supreme example of humility in Philippians 2, Ray Murray passionately calls listeners to sincere self-examination. This sermon is an encouragement to understand that it is God who works within us, urging a zealous repentance and the consistent adoption of a humble spirit—the very foundation for inheriting God's promises, experiencing true peace, and making what Ray calls 'the best decision.
