Bible Exposition On Humility

Exposition using biblical principles on humility,showing God's reactions to Christians that are humble and showing the benefit of being humble from God's perspective.

Check this bible verse:(1 peter 5:6)

"Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God , that he may exalt you in due time "

God promotes and exalt the humble,but resist the proud (james4:6).When you read about the lord Jesus ,the bible says He "made himself of no reputation , and took upon him the form of a servant ,and was made in the likeness of men :And being found in fashion as a man ,he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death of the cross" check this bible verse (Philippians 2:7-8).Jesus had a choice ;He could have decided to stick to his status as the son of God ,but he humbled himself and was obedient even unto death.

Consequently,the bible says "wherefore God also hath highly exalted him and given him a name :That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is the lord,to the glory of God the father".Check this bible verse(PHIL2:7-8).The father was challenged by the humility of Jesus and bestowed upon him the highest authority.

David was also an example of an humble person.Even though he had been anointed to be king over is real, he never spoke evil of king Saul, though  the latter was after his life .Even when he had the opportunity to kill Saul ,David said,"The lord forbid that i should do this thing unto my master, the lord's anointed ,to stretch forth mine hand against him, seeing he is the anointed of the lord "check this bible verse (1sam24:6).He still referred to Saul as 'my master" because of his humble spirit, of course ,David went on to become is real's greatest king, and the man who God himself described as "a man after my own heart" bible verse (acts13:22).What an honour to be described this way by God almighty!

If you remain humble ,God will definitely and surely promote and exalt you at his appointed time.Get rid of arrogance, rudeness and pride.Don't be puffed up ,thinking you're better than others.Be humble ,for that is the path of greatness.
