When we look at the impressive, majestic works of our
Lord, we are
humbled in His sight. We get a clearer sense of our own worth when
compared to the marvelous works of God. Psalm 8: 3-4," When I consider
your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which
you have ordained, what is man that you are mindful of him, and the son
of Man that you visit him? "
Let nothing be done with selfish ambition or conceit,
but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself.
Philippians 2:3(NKJV)
And whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself
will be exalted.
Matthew 23:12(NKJV)
And he sat down,
called the twelve, and said to them, "If anyone desires to be first, he
shall be last of all and servant of all."
Mark 9:35(NKJV)
And Jesus, perceiving
the thought of their heart, took a little child and set him by Him, and
said to them, “Whoever receives this little child in My name receives
Me; and whoever receives Me receives Him who sent Me. For he who is
least among you all will be great.”
Luke 9:48(NKJV)
He has shown you, O
man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do
justly, to love mercy, And to walk humbly with your God?
Micah 6:8(NKJV)
