HUMILITY

BE HUMBLE
-Pride is to make yourself better than others and higher than others.

‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭16:18‭-‬20‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ clearly states that :
” Pride goes before destruction, And a haughty spirit before a fall. BETTER TO BE OF A HUMBLE SPIRIT WITH THE LOWLY, Than to divide the spoil with the proud. He who heeds the word wisely will find good, And whoever trusts in the Lord, happy is he.

However, ‭‭Philippians‬ ‭2:5‭-‬11‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ goes deeper into humility, saying:
” Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. And being found in appearance as a man, HE HUMBLED HIMSELF AND BECAME OBEDIENT TO THE POINT OF DEATH, EVEN THE DEATH OF THE CROSS.

Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.


James 4:6-8 says,
“But he gives more GRACE. Therefore he says, God RESISTS the PROUD, but gives GRACE unto the HUMBLE.
SUBMIT yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
Draw near to God, and HE will DRAW NEAR to you…”
Then 1 Peter 5:5-6 tells us,
Likewise, you younger, SUBMIT yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be SUBJECT one to another, and be clothed with HUMILITY: for God resists the PROUD, and gives GRACE to the HUMBLE.
HUMBLE yourselves therefore UNDER the MIGHTY HAND of God, that he may EXALT you in due time:
-Whosoever God exalts is still humble, but whosoever exalts himself is still proud.
+++Let the Word of God be the standard for your life.
Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!

‭‭”Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.” [ Jude 1:24-25 NKJV]
