23-MAR-2021_the humble get stamina
(See intro message in file: 22-MAR-2021_drink down the hard bits)
(Angelic message: ) Don’t ever assume that because you have done something, seen it, or heard all about it, that you truly “know” what is right and can speak with confidence putting all oppositions down. –For there is lots left to learn, and the quieter you are, the more we can speak and instruct you. So the first down is in humility. Learn to walk the humble road. Take the humble way of thinking. “I don’t really know, unless I’ve just been updated now, fresh in the spirit. I do have much to learn.”
See if you keep putting yourself in a seat of humility, then you don’t have to be forcibly humbled just to keep you on track and out of satan’s traps. 
Traps are for the proud who think they know where they are going and can do as they please. 
Traps are for the proud who think they can get along fine on their own two feet. 
Traps are for those who can’t take a drop of humility when it comes to them in a cup to drink. But the humble are thirsty, and even if it is hard to swallow, they take the cup of humiliation and drink it, as they are thirsty for the truth. 
So the humble do get refreshed. The humble are given stamina to carry on. 
We watch for the humble levels in a person’s soul, and must knock them down a notch or two, or quite a few if that’s a need. So don’t think for a day that you are going to soar or sail along without something that tests your pride, something that tries to get pride to flare up; and there won’t be a day without a test of humility, something that makes and keeps you humble.
Humans can tend to see these tests as a wide range of things, all with a different label on them. But really it’s all about getting and staying humble. –-If you let it, and don’t get so into the hurt side of things, but step back to view things from a new angle. “Ouch that hurt, but what can I learn about my weakness from it. Am I depending on the Lord enough? Or do I still think that if I practice my skills enough and work hard enough I’ll be good enough to do things totally ‘right’ one of these days?”
See, you will never stop getting touches of humility. 
King Nebuchadnezzar had to learn the long and hard way, what pride is and what humility was. He wasn’t well acquainted with the dangers of pride. 
We all learned. It cost us all a whole lot when those of our family fell to the serpent. When he turned in to a serpent—like a winged creature filled with light and colour, turning again to a worm in the dust. It was a backward step. 
And now we know, pride is not the way to go. And we fight it like the plague.
Why are there so many of us monitoring you, our brethren there in the kingdom of pride? So the plague doesn’t start. It’s is easy for pride to be a part of your nature, because that is where you are dwelling. 
Here, it’s love and humility that surrounds us, so it’s “infectious” if you want to say it that way. You breathe and live it and contribute to it. For that which is loving and humble is what flourishes. Any bits of pride just don’t take root. The air of heaven is like burning acid and kills off the spirit of satan, the world spirit, the spirit of pride. They are so similar these days.
But we are sent to watch over God’s sheep to keep them from the “forbidden sin”. Sin is pride, and pride is sin. So what did satan give the seeds of to Adam and Eve? Pride. That was the first, and from that springs so much else.  The “I know and am and can be just a bit better and wiser than God—at least in something. For example I wouldn’t be doing such and such, like it seems He has done in that situation. And I certainly wouldn’t be making me have to go through that, for that just isn’t right.” 
When we see symptoms of the sin of pride, of the plague on a soul we are to guard, we strike a blow in the best way. We “operate” as you could say. Like the expression says, “Cut it out”, meaning “stop it”. You have to remove something to stop the spread of the infection. And we do things that bring you low, but hopefully teach you not to do it. But you have to read the Word or listen fresh so you can get the full lesson. 
Getting a “lesson on humility” is like saying “sit down”. A humbler we give. A “wack” that hurts might be like saying “sit here and learn”. So if you take the humble seat and sit down and then listen and read you’ll get the point of the lesson, not just the humiliation.
And the older and wiser you get, the harder the “wacks” are. The lessons do get harder, but that is because you are tougher and might miss something if it wasn’t made real clear to you. 
So mistakes and short comings are built in humblers, that will always be a part of your life. 
And every time you notice a flaw in the way you react to things or to others, that’s to keep you on a humble road, and to teach you something. 
Just about everything has a built-in way to humble you. For indeed coming through this life with a cloak of humility on you, rather than a garment of pride, is very challenging, and very very important. 
So we “dress” and “re-dress” you as is needed. The old is burned away, and yet the next cloak of humility is put on you. We just have to keep at it and keep pushing you off the pride pedestal that you want to keep being displayed on—even if the only one looking at you is the image in the mirror you are looking at. “Wow, I made it! I’m up here”. 
But because we care about the condition you reach heaven in, “splat!” into the mud you go, off that high and holy place that only God, the one True God is meant to be. 
Ah, now your clothing of pride got muddy, and have to be what? Yes, removed. Then comes the nakedness and the washing. Then what? Something shiny to put on? No. Just a ragged cloak to wrap around you. But the funny thing about this cloak is that to you it looks plain, worn, rough and ragged, but to others it actually looks really nice. And the reverse is so with garments of pride: what looks nice to you, when you feel you are nicer than others, they see it as rags and don’t want to brush up against you. 
Man doesn’t have the eyes to see things as God does. Things aren’t as they appear.
So if you go through your life’s journals and think of all the “worst moments”, did they serve the purpose of humbling you or others? Say for example someone did something that was wrong and it hurt you. Are they sorry for it? Do they regret it? Is there a fresh cloak of humility put on them?
Then that is a gift you can give them, the chance to be humbled, though it cost you some pain. But you’ll be in the same boat time and again as well. Give each other the chance to be humbled time and again by allowing each other to make and keep making mistakes and do things wrong without getting all uptight about it. 
To walk upright
Don’t get uptight.

“I’ll give you that lesson on humility, brother,” you can say in your heart. Because even if they aren’t learning it now, they will one day learn that it really wasn’t right, and most likely was done in a spirit of pride or self-preservation. Which leads us to the next lesson, right?
