Proverbs 18:12

Before a downfall the heart is haughty, but humility comes before honor.

• Humility
• Arrogance
• Pride
• Wisdom
• Honor
• Trust

This verse underscores that humility precedes honor. Before a person can be honored, their heart must be humbled. A haughty spirit, one that is proud and self-exalting, leads to a downfall. But humility is the key to promotion, whether in our relationships with others or in God’s Kingdom. Humility prepares us for honor by teaching us to serve others, to trust in God’s timing, and to recognize that all good things come from Him. When we humble ourselves, we position ourselves for God’s blessing, whether in the form of honor, success, or spiritual growth. This verse serves as a reminder that honor is not something we can force or earn through arrogance, prideful means; it is given to those who remain humble and trusting in God’s plan. Humility prepares us to receive the blessings God has in store for us, and it is through humility that we reflect His character to the world.
