In Today's World Many People Are Self Absorbed and Self Focused. Culture Pushes a Focus on M. A What’s in It for Me Mentality. However, God has a Different Instruction.
God's says: Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself. Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others. Philippians 2:3-4
Another way to put it is…
Don’t be selfish; don’t try to impress others. Be humble, and in a True Sense of Humility, think of others as better than yourselves. Don’t look out only for your own interests, but take an interest in others, too. Philippians 2:3-4
This can only be done by letting the Holy Spirit guide your live, when you habitually let the Holy Spirit respond to and control you; then you will certainly not gratify the cravings and desires of the flesh, the human nature without God. Galatians 5:16
God instructs in Philippians 2:3 To HUMBLE yourselves, under the mighty hand of God, that at the right time he will honor you.1 Peter 5:6
You humble yourself by putting God first.
Putting God First is an Act of Humility that GOD HONORS; He Tells you: Humble yourself, to Show Humility, to Lower your Estimation of Yourself, what you can do in your own strengths, and resources and talents.
This Happens by Being FULLY DEPENDENT o on the LORD – Dismiss Self-Reliance upon self, self-governance, and EMPTYING your carnal ego. This EXALTS the LORD as your ALL IN ALL and prompts the Gift of His Fullness in You as a Believer.
1. You Can Rest Assured of Your True Value in Christ Jesus, As God's Own Child. And that is what you are! 1 John 3:1
2. Draw Your Energy from God and Not from Man for Others. God alone is your source. You are God's workmanship created in Christ Jesus, draw your energy from Him. He gives you Strength for ALL THINGS, Who Empowers You by Infusing Inner Strength into You, Making You Self-Sufficient in Christ Sufficiency. So You're Ready for Anything and Equal to Anything through Him. Philippians 4:13
When you put others first instead of you, looking out for their own best interest just as you would your own; then your for filling the Word of God.
In Isaiah 58:1-12 there's an example of a pious Me Centered generation.
No, this is the kind of fasting I want: Free those who are wrongly imprisoned; lighten the burden of those who work for you. Let the oppressed go free, and remove the chains that bind people. Share your food with the hungry, and give shelter to the homeless. Give clothes to those who need them, and do not hide from relatives who need your help.
1. Then your salvation will come like the dawn,
2. and your wounds will quickly heal.
3. Your godliness will lead you forward, 4. and the glory of the Lord will protect you from behind.
4. Then when you call, the Lord will answer. ‘Yes, I am here,’ he will quickly reply.
5. Remove the heavy yoke of oppression.
Stop pointing your finger and spreading vicious rumors! Feed the hungry, and help those in trouble.
6. Then your light will shine out from the darkness,
7. and the darkness around you will be as bright as noon.
8. The Lord will guide you continually,
9. giving you water when you are dry
10. and restoring your strength.
11. You will be like a well-watered garden, like an ever-flowing spring.
Some of you will rebuild the deserted ruins of your cities. Then
12. you will be known as a rebuilder of walls and a restorer of homes.
Isaiah 58:6-12
