COT:

“Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you.” – 1 Peter 5:6 (ESV)

Men are often admired for their strength, leadership, and independence. However, true strength in the eyes of God doesn’t come from asserting our own will or proving our might; it comes from submission. Submission to God means trusting His plan over ours, acknowledging our limitations, and leaning on His infinite wisdom and power.

In our daily lives, this means letting go of control: Recognize areas where you’re trying to steer your life without God’s guidance.

Leadership in Christ’s model is also about service. How can you serve your family, friends, or even strangers today in a way that reflects Christ’s love?

Lastly, understand that God’s timing is perfect. Even when you feel powerless or delayed, trust that He is working for your good.

Today, identify one area in your life where you’ve been resistant to God’s leading. Pray for the humility to submit that part to Him. Ask for the strength to wait patiently on His timing and to serve others in humility.
