He (who is above all) must increase, I must decrease

Morning: Psalms 63, 98; Isaiah 13:6-13; Hebrews 12:18-29

Evening: Psalm 103; Amos 9:11-15; John 3:22-30

Life devoted purely to self - personal growth and fulfilment, your own happiness, self-promotion or individual success - is a hollow thing. Abundance of life lies in knowing that there is One who is greater than this solitary ‘I’, One who will inspire you to live for something bigger than yourself. Some call this great One their ‘Higher Power’. John the Baptist knew all along that Jesus was this One. Once you discover and accept that Jesus is God in the flesh, One ‘above all’, then what John the Baptist said applies to you: “He must increase, I must decrease.”
