DAY 34: NOT UNTO US BE GLORY
Not unto us, O Lord, not unto us, but to Your name give glory…” – Psalm 115:1
Welcome to Day 34: Humility Is the Safe Place for Favor
There are two kinds of leaders in Scripture:
One who touches God’s glory… and one who lays it down.
In Acts 12, King Herod gave a dazzling speech. The crowd shouted, “This is the voice of a god, not a man!”
And instead of deflecting the praise, Herod absorbed it.
The result? God struck him down. He touched the glory — and it cost him everything.
👑 HIS GLORY, NOT OURS 👑
Contrast that with David, the warrior-worshiper.
Every time he was lifted up, he bent low.
Every time he was crowned, he cast it back at God’s feet.
He declared: “Not to us, O Lord, but to Your name be the glory.”
This is the heart of true favor: radical humility.
Not false modesty — but fierce reverence. A life that knows: everything we have, everything we carry, and every breakthrough we walk in… belongs to Him.
Favor is safest in the hands of those who give it back.
Glory is weighty — and when mishandled, it crushes. But when returned, it multiplies.
If you're stepping into visibility, influence, or breakthrough, let today be the reminder:
Don’t touch the glory. Reflect it. Return it. Release it.
🔑 HUMILITY ACTIVATION TIP:
Look for an opportunity today to shift praise away from yourself and point it back to God — not out of false modesty, but out of a heart that knows who deserves the credit.
🗣 DECLARE TODAY:
"I choose humility. I will not take the Lord’s glory! I say, not unto me be glory — but unto Your Name be the glory forever!"

🙏 Closing Prayer
Father, all glory belongs to You.
Every open door, every answered prayer, every ounce of favor — it’s all Yours.
Forgive me where I’ve taken credit or craved recognition.
Teach me to carry success with humility,
To reflect glory, not absorb it.
Let me live like David — fully aware of where every good and perfect gift comes from.
Let Your name be lifted high in everything I say and do.
In Jesus’ name,
Amen.
