Intimacy with God is the source of direction for our lives. Connected to Him we find out who we are and the joy of humbling our lives to His will and ways.

Calling out for wisdom is an act of humility, versus us leaning on ourselves for the plans and purposes for our life.

When we come from a place of humility in our relationship with God, we know that no task is insignificant. It's a place of influence when we lift up lives around us.

We are not wise by human standards, but because of God we are called. That is how we can step into a realm of demonstration of His power and spirit.

Pride consistently closes doors, brings shame, and paves our way with the destructive ways of the world. Yet humility to God's word paved the way of righteousness.

Fear is a component of pride. It's how the enemy tries to get us to exalt and attend to fear's dictates and voice. Let's repent of letting pride tell us what our future holds.

God loves you, and never leaves or forsakes us, but he also loves you enough not to endorse your pride. Pride looks like many things, and holding onto our cares is one of them! Humility is releasing our cares to His love and care for us.

The Fear of the Lord brings joy. See, when you know the correct order of God in your life, then your submission to Him allows you to operate in His wisdom understanding and blessings.

It's in understanding the fear of the Lord, and the awe and respect of God with humility that brings honor. The Father loves when we operate in the humility of obedience. When we humble ourselves to obey he's so excited and proud to then lavish his honor & blessings on us.

Pride and humility will show themselves in the way we see ourselves and how we view the past. Do we tell God he can't use us, or has to use us based off our past? If so, you're letting the past have more influence than the Word. Success or failures; your past is not your future.
