READ: 2 Timothy 2:1-2
“As for you, My sheep, the sheep of My pasture, you are men, and I am your God,” declares the Lord God.” – Ezekiel 34:31, NASB
It takes humility to admit that you are not an original. Copying makes you dependent and sheep-like. The sheep nature is different from the serpent nature. It is the nature of snakes to be independent and solitary. This is the very opposite of how you must be if you want to walk with the Lord.
You will have to depend on someone, you will have to learn from someone and you will have to follow someone. It is a good thing because no one can boast except in the Lord who created all things.
Because you are humble, the blessings of God are going to be passed on to another generation. Not only will there be one great man of God for this generation, but there will be another of the same kind for the next generation.
“But He led forth His own people like sheep And guided them in the wilderness like a flock; He led them safely, so that they did not fear; But the sea engulfed their enemies. So He brought them to His holy land, To this hill country which His right hand had gained. He also drove out the nations before them And apportioned them for an inheritance by measurement, And made the tribes of Israel dwell in their tents” (Psalm 78:52-55, NASB).
