“Let another praise you, and not your own mouth; someone else, and not your own lips.” – Proverbs 27:2
3 Revelations That Precede Elevated Positioning• Apart from Him, we can do nothing. ““I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.” John 15:5
• No agenda is more important than His will on earth, as it is in Heaven. “Sanctify them by Your truth. Your word is truth. As You sent Me into the world, I also have sent them into the world.” John 17:17-18
• Becoming who God sees you as involves a process of being “transformed” by the renewing of your mind. “And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.” Romans 12:2
