THE GATEWAY TO GRACE 1 Peter 5:5-7
You younger men, likewise, be subject to your elders; and all of you, clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, for God is opposed to the proud, but gives grace to the humble. 6 Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you at the proper time, 7 casting all your anxiety on Him, because He cares for you.

Humility is the gateway to God’s grace
THE GATEWAY TO GRACE 1 Peter 5:5-7
Pride shuts itself off from God for three reasons… 1. It does not know (or will not acknowledge) its own need. …
It walks in (or desires) self-sufficiency. 2. It cherishes (or desires) its own independence. It will be
(or desires to be) beholden to no man; it will not even be beholden to God.
3. It does not recognize its own sin. - William Barclay

THE GATEWAY TO GRACE 1 Peter 5:5-7
There is nothing…no circumstance…no trouble…no testing that can touch me until, first of all it has gone past God and past Christ right through to me. If it has come that far, it has come with a great purpose which I may not understand at the moment. But as I refuse to become panicky, as I lift my eyes to Him and accept as coming from His throne for some great purpose of blessing to my own heart… No sorrow will disturb me…No trial will disarm me…No circumstance will cause me to fret, for I shall rest in the joy of what my Lord is – the rest of Victory.
