Why Having a Humble Attitude?

If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

2 chronicles 7:14 (KJV)


Part of being a Christian is humbling ourselves and realizing that without God, our lives truly mean nothing. We are to acknowledge that we have made a conscious choice to turn away from the bad deeds and sinful habits, and we have turned to the holy life God has presented before us.


God expects that if His people, who are called by His name, have dishonoured His name by their iniquity, they should honour it by accepting the punishment of their iniquity. They must humble themselves under his hand, must pray for the removal of the judgment, must seek his face and favour: and yet all this will not be sufficient, unless they turn from their wicked ways, and return to him from whom they have revolted. National mercy is then promised, Then will I hear from heaven.


God will first forgive their sin, which brought the judgment upon them, and then will heal their land, and redress their grievances.


May God bless you all!

We should have this teaching in church because many Christians today don't even know what it is. If they do, they don't know how the Bible describe it. Thank you for sharing this.

I always try to humble myself before God, sometimes I find myself doing or saying things that I think is in accordance with God but people always say that it is rebellion against Him.
