Humility |
Philippians 2
5Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus: 6Who,
being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be
grasped, 7but made himself nothing, taking the very nature
of a servant, being made in human likeness. 8And being found in
appearance as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient to death even death
on a cross!
2 Corinthians 7
14In addition to our own encouragement, we were especially
delighted to see how happy Titus was, because his spirit has been refreshed by
all of you. I had boasted to him about you, and you have not embarrassed me. But
just as everything we said to you was true, so our boasting about you to Titus
has proved to be true as well.
Proverbs 3
34 He mocks proud mockers but gives grace to the humble.
Proverbs 15
33 The fear of the LORD teaches a man wisdom, and humility comes
before honor.
Proverbs 22
4 Humility and the fear of the LORD bring wealth and honor and
life.
Numbers 12
3 (Now Moses was a very humble man, more humble than anyone else
on the face of the earth.)
Luke 18
14"I tell you that this man, rather than the other, went home
justified before God. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he
who humbles himself will be exalted."
Matthew 18
4Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this child is the
greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
James 4
6But he gives us more grace. That is why Scripture says: "God
opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble."
1 Peter 5
6Humble yourselves, therefore, under God's mighty hand, that he
may lift you up in due time.
