Topic: Excellence, The Sponsor Of Eminence [Seeds of Destiny 27 May 2019 Devotional]
When the Name of God is mentioned, it is identified with excellence.
SCRIPTURE: What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him? For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour. Psalm 8:4-5
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: When the Name of God is mentioned, it is identified with excellence.
Eminence is the state of being famous, respected or important. It is fame or acknowledged superiority within a particular sphere of human endeavour. Eminence is synonymous with distinction, renown, notability, greatness, prestige, importance, repute, etc.
Man was created by God to exist in eminence or greatness. Man was created by God as king of creation, crowned with glory and honour, not shame and reproach. You were created to dominate creation and not to be dominated.

Topic: God’s Will Above Ours [Andrew Wommack Devotional 27 May 2019]
Luke 9:23, ‘And he said to them all, if any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.’
Matthew 16:16-26; Mark 8:30-37; Luke 9:21-27
Self-denial is an important part of the Christian life. Jesus sacrificed His life for us and He demands that we die to ourselves that we might experience the new life He has provided. We do this first by recognizing that we can’t save ourselves by our own effort and, second, by trusting God – not self – for salvation. Then daily, we need to deny our own wisdom and seek God’s wisdom and direction for our lives.
