Before destruction the heart of man is proud, but before honor is humility.
if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves, pray, seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time,
For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.”
For I say through the grace that was given me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of yourself more highly than you ought to think; but to think reasonably, as God has apportioned to each person a measure of faith.
