Humility Prayer

Dear Lord, I am coming to realize how dangerous pride is in the life of a believer and how important true, godly humility is to the heart of God.

I read in your words that pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall, and I begin to see the devastating and destructive nature of pride and the true blessing that comes from a heart that is humble and contrite in spirit.

Keep me from falling prey to the many temptations that pride seems to scatter in my path, where I want to be the center of attention and desire to receive all the acclaim, the glory, that rightly belongs to you.

Teach Me Your Ways

And show me how I may clothe myself in godly humility toward one another, for Peter teaches that, “God opposes the proud but shows grace to the humble.

Thank You for opening up Your Word to me and helping me to see the beautiful truth about humility – and I ask that You will work good work in my life day by day, until I am more like Christ and less like me, in Jesus’ name, I pray.

For a Vision of Your Holiness

Make me that sensitive to Your holiness, O God, that I might indeed be aware of my vileness and fall before You in humility and confession.
Amen.

Gospel Seed of Humility

O our Lord and God, restrain our thoughts so that they do not wander amid the vanities of this world. O Lord our God, grant that I may be united to the affection of your love, unworthy though I be. Glory be to you, O Christ.

Ascend into the chamber of your renowned light, O Lord; sow in me the good seed of humility; under the wings of your grace hide me through your mercy. If you were to mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand? Because there is mercy with you.
Amen
