DOOR MAT THEOLOGY!

The sermon last night at my church was delivered by our Associate Pastor.  A tool used of GOD is someone who is totally dependent on HIM for the results.  I appreciate him being willing to be used of The LORD!

While speaking to us, the term "DOOR MAT THEOLOGY" was used by our Pastor.  Door Mat Theology is the premise of being used BY HIM to GLORIFY HIM!  The main thing is for GOD to get GLORY out of a situation even if we have to be used as a DOOR MAT for that to happen.  We should never use the DOOR MAT THEOLOGY to abase or make someone small!  Door Mat Theology is a self administered does of medicine.

As previously stated in another post, being from poverty,  it is hard for me to debase myself and LET people be more than me.  It is like giving up something you have worked hard for and letting someone get away with getting one over on you.  I have to be reminded that it is not I who they are getting something over on!  I am dead in Christ!  It is Christ who they are dealing with.

Sometimes I have to go back to my funeral and remind myself that I am dead!  I mess SO much up when I try to "COME BACK TO LIFE"  and run the show!  Galatians 2:19-20   "For through the law I died to the law, so that I might live to God. I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me."
