God Loves Humility

He Saves the Humble.  Psalm 149:4

He saves the humble. Psalm 149:4

With the same intensity that He hates arrogance, God loves humility.  The Jesus who said, ‘I am gentle and humble in spirit’. (Matthew 11:29) loves those who are gentle and humble in spirit.  “Though the Lord supreme, He takes care of those who are humble” (Psalm 138:6).  God says, “I live with people who are…. humble” (Isaiah 57:15).

He also says, “These are the people I am pleased with: those who are not proud or stubborn.” (Isaiah 66:2).  And to the humble, God gives great treasure.

  • He gives honor:If you want to be honored, you must be humble” (Proverbs 15:33).
  • He gives wisdom: “It is wise to be humble.”
    (Proverbs 11:2).
  • He gives direction: ‘He shows those who are humble how to do right” (Psalm 25:9).
  • And most significantly, He gives grace:He gives grace to the humble” (1 Peter 5:5).
