—Matthew 23:5-12

“Whoever exalts himself shall be humbled; and whoever humbles himself shall be exalted” (v.12). There are several instances recorded in the Bible where Jesus lashed out against the Rabbis because they loved to exalt themselves. The last time Jesus met with the twelve apostles, He taught them a lesson on humility, knowing when they realized that He was gone, they would reflect on the last thing He said and did. Jesus was the epitome of humility and because of that, He volunteered to die in our place so that we can live eternally. For that He is exalted. How do you practice humility?
