Day 12: Humility Cures Worldliness

Posted by David Weir

1 Peter 5:6 (New King James Version)
6 Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time

  • Yesterday I wrote that the first sign of a renewed mind (Romans 12) is humility. Humility is a mindset that does not settle on us naturally.
  • The wonderful thing about this extended time of fasting is that we can target our thinking and allow God time to unveil strongholds that cause us trouble.
  • Let's meditate on these verses and be open to new thoughts and correction on thoughts that the Lord wants us to repent of.

James 4:6-7 (New King James Version)
6 But He gives more grace. Therefore He says: “ God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble.”
7 Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.

James 4:10 (New King James Version)
10 Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up.
