Jesus says in Matthew 11:29, "Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls." Are we willing to be humble enough for God to rest His glory upon us so that He can use us as His earthly vessels to do His work? If we are willing, our ministries will be more effective and awesome for He is the One Who works, while we rest in Him!
Moses carried the glory of God as he was a very humble man as stated in Numbers 12:3 "Now Moses was a very humble man, more humble than anyone else on the face of the earth."
In contrast, Saul disobeyed due to his pride and arrogance and the Spirit of God (manifest presence of His glory) departed from him (1 Samuel 16:14).
It takes humility to obey His voice. Obedience is the mark of true sonship. This is true humility in God's sight, and the measure of how much the King of Glory can live in us, depends on how obedient we are to do the will of God.
A man of God wrote:- “Humility has nothing to do with how much or how little money we have. Jesus said that He was humble, yet He possessed the universe and had all power (Matthew 11:29 NLT). The devil, on the other hand, has had everything stripped from him and he is full of pride (Isaiah 14:12-15).
Humility is exalting God and His Word and His plan above your own and willingly being obedient to all that He says. Jesus submitted His will completely to the Father and He was humble. In light of that, if we submit our will to the Father with willing obedience, then we too will be walking in humility.”
