So, if we find we are struggling with the humility issue we should first acknowledge our lack of humility to Him, we should then ask Him to grant us revelation understanding of the truth of our situation, and when we see things as He sees them, we need to run to Him and ask for His help in enabling us to do the thing He says we need to do about it.
Humility leads us to a place of obedience to His will for us and that is where the greater grace is most realized. What we might have thought before was impossible is now the most reasonable thing we could have ever imagined due to the working of His greater grace!
No matter what it is you are going through right now, turn to God give Him your cares for He cares for you. Humility will lead us to pray even more when times are tough and much suffering is occurring.
We need to humble ourselves under the mighty hand of God so that He might exalt us in due time. Only He knows when that is, all we need to know is that He is with us and He is for us, and if God be for us who can be against us!
Psalms 55:22 Cast your burden on the Lord, and He shall sustain you; He will never permit the righteous to be moved.
We need to pray!
We need to turn to the only One who can help us in our time of need in a very concerted and deliberate manner.
We need solutions and answers.
We need strength and endurance!

- I currently serve as Senior Pastor of Harvest Church in Knoxville, Tn. I was sent out from Trinity Chapel of Knoxville in 1993 accompanied by my wife Sheila our four children Sarah, Hannah, Josiah & Isaac and a handful of bold, brave and committed believers determined to plant our first church. Pioneering is hard work but well worth the journey. That is why we desire to make disciples of Christ who will, like us, also embrace the call to plant churches.
