Are you humble?

  Are you Humble?

In the book of James we read,

“Humble yourselves before the Lord, 

and He will lift you up.” 

                                              James 4:10 

The Psalmist notes,

“He guides the humble in what is right

 and teaches them his way.” 

                                                                     Psalm 25:9

In Psalm 149 the Psalmist states

“For the LORD takes delight in his people; 

He crowns the humble with salvation.” 

                                                           Psalm 149:4

In the book of Philippians we get this advice,

“Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus: 

Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped, but made himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. 

And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient to death—even death on a cross!” Philippians 2:5-8.

So are you a proud or humble person?

If you claim to be a follower of Christ Jesus. When you present the gospel message do you present it in humility. Allowing the person you present it to, to decide for themselves whether or not to believe what you say?

Please think about it.
