Humble

[cizz]

“For the LORD takes delight in his people; he crowns the humble with salvation.”- Psalm 149:4

Psa 10:17     LORD, thou hast heard the desire of the humble: thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear:

Psa 34:2     My soul shall make her boast in the LORD: the humble shall hear [thereof], and be glad.

Pro 16:19     Better [it is to be] of an humble spirit with the lowly, than to divide the spoil with the proud.

Pro 29:23     A man's pride shall bring him low: but honour shall uphold the humble in spirit.

Isa 57:15     For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name [is] Holy; I dwell in the high and holy [place], with him also [that is] of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones.

We need to remain humble and childlike even as we grow in strength and experience. We need to seek the downward mobility as our Master Jesus Christ. Otherwise we cannot inherit the promises. We must decrease (continually) and He must increase.
