So people have asked me this question through the years, Brother Zach,
what is the secret of remaining in humility? Always. Very simple. If you
walk with a humble man, you'll be humble.

And the humblest man that walked on the earth was Jesus Christ. Walk
with him every day. When you begin a day, this is how I begin my day,
before I get out of bed.

The first person I talk to is Jesus Christ. First person. Lord Jesus, I
want to walk with you today.

I don't want to be a great preacher. I don't want to do any great things
for you. I just want to walk with you in humility, in brokenness, in
purity over sin, in my thought life, in my conversation, that I never
get angry, never murmur or complain about anything, in my relationship
with my wife, who's the one I see every day.

Lord, please preserve me. I'm a weak person. I'm the chief of all the
sinners, but I know you can keep me with the grace of God upon my life
till the end of my days.

I want to encourage you, walk with Jesus. Walk with him every day. It's
the greatest honor we can have.

The King of Kings that I can walk with him. You will never, never become
proud of anything in your life. And the grace of God will be upon you
till the end of your days.

May it be so. Amen. Let's pray.

Let's bow our heads in prayer, brothers and sisters. Please remember and
meditate on what we heard or listen to the tape again later. Listen to
it often so that you're reminded of the failures of other people.

Learn from the failures of others and never, never say, it will not
happen to me. Lord, have mercy on us. We are in great danger.

The devil is walking about as a roaring lion seeking to devour people
with pride. And yet in the midst of all, we hear your word saying, come
learn from me, for I am humble of heart. And you shall find rest for
your souls.

We want to learn from you, Lord. Lord Jesus, we want to see your example
in the little things we read in the gospels and walk that way till the
end of our life. We thank you for your mercy upon us.

We thank you that your mercy has preserved us and our children and our
families and everything else. We give you all the glory, Heavenly
Father, for being such a loving father to us, warning us in advance of
dangers we will face. We thank you in Jesus name.

Amen.
