Morning. Part of fasting is humbling yourself before God, in other words, submitting yourself, setting aside Your ways to seek The Way of the Master Gardner, Elohim in the cleansing and transforming of your inner garden. That said, I wanted to share some verses for reflection and to hopefully guide you to some deep diving into what it means to humble and submit to God’s plan. Keeping in mind the submitting I am referring to is not a negative word, just the opposite. The submission is coming from our Love for Elohim (God), Yeshua (the Messiah, Jesus), and the ‘Ha Ruach Ha Kodesh (Holy Spirit). I ask when you sincerely love someone aren’t you willing to give, serve, and wanting to submit to them and make them happy the same as they do that with you? Aren’t you willing to submit yourself into a Love relationship with Yeshua (Jesus) as He Loved & Submitted himself to you, FOR YOU?
2 Chronicles 7:14 …. then if my people, who bear my name, will humble themselves, pray, seek my face and turn from their evil ways, I will hear them & forgive their sin and heal their land.
Matthew 18:4 So the greatest in the Kingdom is whoever makes himself as humble as this child.
1 Peter 5:6 Therefore, humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, so that at the right time He may lift you up.
These are just a few verses on humbling yourself. For the full view and understanding of Humbling and Submission You will need to do further deep diving on your own. I recommend you Google each word for the definition of each and then good “what does God’s word say about Humbling and Submission. I will kick it off with this one: https://www.crosswalk.com/faith/spiritual-life/what-you-need-to-know-about-the-meaning-of-submission-in-the-bible.html
