David Jeremiah Daily Devotional for Today 12th February 2025
Prior to his encounter with Jesus Christ, no one would have mistaken Saul of Tarsus, who became the apostle Paul, for a meek or humble person. His focus in life was his personal advancement as a Pharisee in Judaism (Philippians 3:4-6). He was not teachable; his heart and mind were closed to the Gospel.
Nicodemus was also a Pharisee, a “ruler of the Jews” (John 3:1), but he had a teachable heart. He met with Jesus at night to try to understand who Jesus was. He was not too proud to ask questions and consider that perhaps his understanding was limited. In fact, he accompanied Joseph of Arimathea to bury Jesus after the crucifixion (John 19:38-42). One of the marks of humility (meekness) is a teachable spirit, a willingness to learn from God and from others who know Him well. The psalmist prayed, “Open my eyes, that I may see wondrous things from Your law” (Psalm 119:18).
A good way to practice meekness before the Lord is to pray that prayer when you open God’s Word. Ask Him to show you more of Himself and how to conform your life to His will.
Meekness is having a teachable spirit.
