He Who wants you to be as Great as He Is

Mark 9:34 But they kept quiet because on the way they had argued about who was the greatest.

Romans 2:29 No, a person is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is circumcision of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the written code. Such a person’s praise is not from other people, but from God.

It is very important for your life to represent God in your heart.

Proverbs 10:16 The wages of the righteous is life, but the earnings of the wicked are sin and death.

  Therefore if you are enabled to represent God in your heart, I believe you can be described as great. 

Matthew 5:9 Therefore anyone who sets aside one of the least of these commands and teaches others accordingly will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever practices and teaches these commands will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

Matthew 20:26 Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant,

Matthew 18:4 Therefore, whoever takes the lowly position of this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

Matthew 23:11 The greatest among you will be your servant.

Luke 9:38 Then he said to them, “Whoever welcomes this little child in my name welcomes me; and whoever welcomes me welcomes the one who sent me. For it is the one who is least among you all who is the greatest.”

If you have wanted to be better than anyone in anything God wants to help you.God in His heart wants you to be as great as He Is.  God in His heart wants you to turn back to wanting others of you to be better than you to the same extent He wants you to be better than Him. 

Mark 9:35 Sitting down, Jesus called the Twelve and said, “Anyone who wants to be first must be the very last, and the servant of all.”

Mark 10:31 But many who are first will be last, and the last first.”

God in his heart would rather be nothing at all so that you could be everything than be anything while you are nothing.

John 13:1  It was just before the Passover Festival. Jesus knew that the hour had come for him to leave this world and go to the Father. Having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end.

2 Corinthians 6:10 sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; poor, yet making many rich; having nothing, and yet possessing everything.

Philippians 2: 5-8 Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus. Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant,  being made in human likeness.  And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to death— even death on a cross! 

1 Thessalonians 2:19 For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Is it not even you in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ at His coming.? For you are our glory and joy.
