God Esteems the Humble

As a believer in Jesus Christ, without learning to control your ego, it is impossible for you to realize the full benefits of a relationship with the Holy Spirit because your ego will always block His ability to communicate with you and to direct you. God demands humility in order for His Spirit to be given full reign to be able to work within you and make you more like Christ.
