Thought for Meditation
The Lord our God will not deliver us He would or use us as He could,
until we humble ourselves before Him as we should.
The Lord our God will not deliver us He would or use us as He could,
until we humble ourselves before Him as we should.
James 4:6-10
But he giveth more grace.
Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.
Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you.
Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded.
Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep:
let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness.
Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.

The LORD also will be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble.
And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee:
for thou, LORD, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.
Sing praises to the LORD, which dwelleth in Zion: declare among the people his doings.
When he maketh inquisition for blood, he remembereth them:
he forgetteth not the cry of the humble.
Psalm 10:17
LORD, thou hast heard the desire of the humble:
thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear.

The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way.

Though the LORD be high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly:
but the proud he knoweth afar off.

For the froward is abomination to the LORD: but his secret is with the righteous.
The curse of the LORD is in the house of the wicked: but he blesseth the habitation of the just. Surely he scorneth the scorners: but he giveth grace unto the lowly.
The wise shall inherit glory: but shame shall be the promotion of fools.
Isaiah 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.

but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit,
and trembleth at my word.

and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.
