And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross.\u201d (Philippians 2:5-8)<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Jesus, by His demonstration, it proved that obedience is encased in humbleness. It is clear that humbleness is one of the possibilities for man to be obeying God. Also, disobedience is the evidence of lack of humbleness. Pharaoh of Egypt repeatedly disobeyed the word of God through Moses and Aaron because he was not humble. <strong><em>Exodus 10:3-4<\/em><\/strong> mentioned, <strong><em>\u201c<\/em><\/strong><strong><em>So Moses and Aaron came in to Pharaoh and said to him, \u201cThus says the <\/em><\/strong><strong><em>Lord<\/em><\/strong><strong><em> God of the Hebrews: \u2018How long will you refuse to humble yourself before Me? Let My people go, that they may serve Me. <sup>\u00a0<\/sup>Or else, if you refuse to let My people go, behold, tomorrow I will bring locusts into your territory.\u201d <\/em><\/strong>Pharaoh could not obey because he lacked humbleness. Pharaoh\u2019s lack of humility testified that Pharaoh could not get it that God is not a small god that can be limited. Pharaoh lack of humbleness is the opposite of Moses\u2019 humbleness to the word of God. Pharaoh disobedient enhanced his failure and he wasted in his entire endeavor.<br \/>\nMoses\u2019 humbleness before God makes it an offense for any man to go against Moses in his entire endeavor. <strong><em>Numbers 12:1-3<\/em><\/strong> pointed out that, <strong><em>\u201c<\/em><\/strong><strong><em>Then Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses because of the Ethiopian woman whom he had married; for he had married an Ethiopian woman. <sup>\u00a0<\/sup>So they said, \u201cHas the <\/em><\/strong><strong><em>Lord<\/em><\/strong><strong><em> indeed spoken only through Moses, has he not spoken through us also?\u201d And the Lord heard it. (Now the man Moses was very humble, more than all men who were on the face of the earth.) <\/em><\/strong>It is not a fun fair to be going against man that God considers as humbled mind.<br \/>\nThe character of God is deliverance for man with humbled mind and word confirmed that God,<strong><em> \u201c\u2026will save the humble people;<\/em><\/strong><strong><em> but Your eyes are on the haughty, that You may bring them down.\u201d (2 Samuel 22:28) <\/em><\/strong>Indeed, Pharaoh was not delivered but was brought down because he was haughty minded.<br \/>\nAre you submissive to the glory of God?<br \/>\nDisallow pride and let submission be your portion.
