Proverbs 18:12 (NKJV) 12 Before destruction the heart of a man is haughty, and before honor is humility.
Humility.
Without it, we can’t be saved. It takes humbling ourselves and admitting our need for God’s grace, mercy and salvation in order to receive it.
Without it, we can never be the person who God wants us to be. It takes humility to admit that we have faults and we need God to help us correct those faults.
Without it, we will continue to live in sinful ways. We need to be humble to allow the Holy Spirit to convict us of our sins and let Him show us where and how to change.
Without it, we will live a life full of unforgiveness against others. It takes being humble to admit that we are sometimes wrong and we need to forgive others when they do wrong to us.
Humility will lead us into God’s arms. Pride, the opposite of humility, will lead us away from His arms, and into the arms of the enemy, if we’re not careful.
We all need to seek God and ask Him to show us where we have pride in our lives, and ask Him to help us remove it so we can draw closer to Him.
