I just want to share this with you.

King Nebuchadnezzar was said to be the greatest and most powerful of all the Babylonian kings. But after being humbled by the Lord, he declared — 

Daniel 4:37 "Praise and honor the King who rules from heaven!
Everything He does is honest and fair,
and He can shatter the power of those who are proud.” (CEV) 

 

We sometimes convinced ourselves that we're in charge of our lives but when trouble comes our way, we are reminded that it is not true yet even in times of hardship we quickly want to regain control. In an attempt to fix it all in our own way we resort in manipulating circumstances or people, divising strategies or using our own effort to fix what causes us trouble.

But you know, helplessness is one of the ways God uses to break pride and produce humility this is what we can see in Daniel 4:28-37 in the life of King Nebuchadnezzar a very proud babylonian king whom God humbled through the loss of his reason or mental stability. He came out of this situation as a changed man who worshipped and praised the Lord recognizing that God alone controls everything.

Let us think about our response when we are powerless or helpless, on those time when we cannot do anything to control the situation. Are we going to blame God? or praise Him? Are we going to submit to what God allows or try our own methods and strategy to get out?
