Well, Ellen posted a link to an transcript from Nancy Leigh DeMoss on Humility. There was also part of the transcript from Dick Eastman.

One of her main points was the necessity of humility. In a nutshell, if you are proud, God will oppose you. If you don’t want Almighty God opposing you than wake up and clothe yourself with humility!

Here is an excerpt from the end that stuck out to me….

“We might then just say, “Well, how do you get humble?” Go back to that passage of Scripture. Don’t be selfish. That’s one thing. Another one: don’t live to make a good impression on others, but be humble, thinking of others as better than yourselves. And then that third “don’t.” Don’t think only about your own affairs, but be interested in others’.

When you look back historically to those great leaders that have made the greatest impact, they were humble by focusing on others. Humility is really a sacrifice of something and it’s a giving of yourself. That’s why it’s first on the list. 2 Chronicles 7:14: “If my people will humble themselves.” A spirit of humility is going to be key to revival.”

Thank you, Ellen, for the link… definitely a needed lesson…
