DON’T ASK GOD TO HUMBLE YOU”

“Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time.” 1 Peter 5:6 KJV

There are numberless things that God will gladly do for you; but humbling you, I am sure isn’t one of them!

The reason is because, His method of humbling people is always very tough and unpleasant. When Daniel counseled King Nebuchadnezzar on how to be humble. He told him; ‘sir, try doing it by yourself’!
“Wherefore, O king, let my counsel be acceptable unto thee, and break off thy sins by righteousness, and thine iniquities by shewing mercy to the poor; if it may be a lengthening of thy tranquillity” Daniel 4:27 KJV. The king didn’t take that counsel. He allowed God to step in! That was why he found himself in the forest, living there for seven years. Eating grass with his mouth {the same mouth that he used to speak arrogantly} and crawling on his hands {the hands that he said got him all the glory he had}. Please, do not ever allow God to humble you. Do it, by yourself! Humble yourself.

You are the one who can correct yourself without feeling someone is picking on you. Do self assessment often. Ask yourself: ‘how do people describe me?’ ‘How do I treat those who depend on me for anything?’ ‘How high do I carry myself…?’ If you notice any thing that looks like ungodly pride, work on it immediately. Be deliberate about showing respect to people. Speak politely intentionally. You won’t lose any thing even if you respect those below you. Your next level with God depends largely on your present behaviour!
