THE MAN GOD LOOKS

1:54

...But this is the one to whom I will look: he who is humble and contrite in spirit and trembles at my word.

(Isaiah 66:2 ESV).

God has never chosen men based on their social status, achievements, titles, or outward spirituality.

In essence, God does not look at what a man has gathered, but at what has been broken within him.

There are things we parade that hold no value before God.

This is to say that what God looks for in man is not his spiritual sufficiency but his insatiable heart, not his perfection but his broken and contrite spirit.

Scripture said,

The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise. (Psalms 51:17 ESV).

In the secular world, organizations look for able men, but God's style is different, He looks for men who will consistently acknowledge their inability so He makes them able.

Apostle Paul acknowledged this when he said,

Not that we are competent in ourselves to claim anything for ourselves, but our competence comes from God.

He has made us competent as ministers of a new covenant---not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life. (2 Corinthians 3:5-6 NIV)

Friends, whatever offers you the mindset of self-competence has already set you up for struggling, because God only looks in our direction when we acknowledge that we are not fit or know what to do next.

There are many doors you have been knocking with your qualifications, the reason it has not opened, but bear in mind the greatest qualification for divine attention is a contrite heart.

What God looks for in man over the years is not the bended knee but the heart that bends it, not the prayer but the motive that prays it, not how many times confession was made but the sincerity of heart for which it was made.

Today, I encourage you to make peace with God as you repeat after me.

LORD Jesus, I accept you as my personal LORD and Savior.

Please forgive my sins and write my name in the Lamb's book of life.

Thank you for saving me..

I pray that God will empty us of every self-sufficient heart that is restricting that which God intends to do in us and through us.

In the name of Jesus.
