I am Your servant; give me understanding, that I may know Your testimonies – Psalm 119:125
We need to develop an understanding of the word of God if we want to be counted amongst those who have testimonies of the goodness of God. We need to give ourselves to knowing Him and His word if we are to stand a chance of growing our understanding of His will and His way. And we need to be humble before God if we are to increase in knowledge. Thus, humility comes before understanding, and understanding comes before testimonies. Said differently, humility before God releases the grace that leads us to experience and testify of the goodness of God. Conversely, testimonies are excluded from prideful beliefs. Don’t believe that God heals? It becomes difficult to experience the grace of God in that area. Don’t believe that God wants to prosper you? It becomes difficult to testify to His goodness in our finances. Don’t know that God looks at you through the lens of Christ? It will be tougher not to condemn yourself should you fail. Lack of knowledge and understanding keep us from experiencing the sure testimonies of God. May we not exclude ourselves from testimonies because we failed to develop a servant heart of humility.
A heart of humility makes me a candidate to be a witness to God’s testimonies
