Daily Bible Nugget #35, James 4:10

The Nugget:

James 4:10 Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.

My Comment:

This is the first of the memory verses on my nearly original list. I say nearly, because I shortened the list to make it a manageable project for the teenagers in my high school Sunday school class to learn. This verse is broadly included under the general topic, Verses about Prayer. If these verses are not among the verses you already know by heart, I encourage you to memorize them as they are presented. I am only as far as Hebrews 11 in my vast project to increase the number of cross references available for Bible study, so I won't present the cross references below this time.

    james 4.10 humble yourselves in the sight of god, and he shall lift you up. a command and a promise in this verse. its better for us to humble ourselves rather than the lord humble us! james 4.6 but he giveth more grace, wherefore he saith, god resisteth the proud,[ i dont want the lord to resist me do you] but giveth more grace to the humble. 4.7 submit yourselves therefore to god, resist the devil and he will flee from you. job 22.29 when men are cast down, then thou shalt say, there is lifting up; and he shall save the humble person. lk 18.14 he humbleth himself shall be exalted. i thess 5.18 in everything give thanks:for this is the will of god in christ jesus concerning you.
