Some Bible Verses on Humility

Phil. 2:3 Don’t be selfish; don’t try to impress others. Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourselves.

1 Peter 5:6 So humble yourselves under the mighty power of God, and at the right time he will lift you up in honor.

The Bible says that we are to humble ourselves. Here are some practical ways to practice humility.

Prayer- Prayer draws us closer to God and it shows our need and dependance on HIM. It communicates to God that we don’t have it all figured out and that we need him to supernatually intervene. This is an act of humility.

Simple Acts of Service- The things we do when no one is watching. It can be as simple as picking up an extra piece of trash, paying for a persons meal behind you in the drive thru or saving the best parking spot for someone else.

Being Slow to Speak- Biting our tongue even when we know someone is clearly in the wrong.

Considering Others Better than Ourselves- Understanding that we may not always have the answer. When we consider others better than ourselves, we truly listen to what people have to say.

Lets continue to value Humility TOGETHER!
