As believers and followers of Christ Jesus, our lives are a demonstration of our faith - Living epistles to encourage the Body of Christ, and to be a witness to those who have not come to the knowledge of the TRUTH.
In the true believer's lifestyle, we reflect the shining of God's glory for all to see.
Because of this reason, we want to always be mindful not to get to ahead of ourselves. Thinking that we have "arrived" can cause many to stumble.
May we continue to be humble servants, and not to think more highly of ourselves than we ought.
Having a high minded mindset has lead many of us to demonstrate and speak our own words of human wisdom when witnessing to others, saying things that sound eloquent and intelligent, but far from Godly principles - God's presence, the anointing, will vacant real quick if we speak and act as if we're so divine and piety is our middle name.
God will not share His glory with another. This we can definitely be most assured!

I Corinthians 1:28 - 31
28 God chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things—and the things that are not—to nullify the things that are,
29 so that no one may boast before him.
30 It is because of him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God—that is, our righteousness, holiness and redemption.
31 Therefore, as it is written: “Let the one who boasts boast in the Lord.”
I Corinthians 1 and 2
1 And so it was with me, brothers and sisters. When I came to you, I did not come with eloquence or human wisdom as I proclaimed to you the testimony about God.
2 For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.
