Bible study on humility

 Blessed are the meek,

    for they will inherit the earth. Matthew 5:5


At that time the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Who, then, is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?”  He called a little child to him, and placed the child among them.  And he said: “Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.  Therefore, whoever takes the lowly position of this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 18:1-4


if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin 

and will heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14


(Now Moses was a very humble man, more humble than anyone else on the face of the earth.) Numbers 12:3

You save the humble

    but bring low those whose eyes are haughty. Psalms 18:27





He has shown you, O mortal, what is good.

    And what does the Lord require of you?

To act justly and to love mercy

    and to walk humbly with your God. 

Micah 6:8


For the Lord takes delight in his people;

    he crowns the humble with victory.

Psalms 149:4


When pride comes, then comes disgrace,

    but with humility comes wisdom.

Proverbs 11:2


Humility is the fear of the Lord;

    its wages are riches and honor and life.

Proverbs 22:4
