What if everything you thought you knew about humility was wrong? In this episode of The Resting Place podcast, we challenge conventional religious thinking about what true humility actually means. Through powerful biblical narratives—from the twelve spies entering Canaan to King Saul hiding among the baggage to Jesus washing His disciples' feet—they reveal that authentic humility isn't thinking less of yourself, but rather agreeing with God's perspective of who you are.

This episode contrasts Caleb's bold faith with the fear-based hesitation of the other spies. While most religious teaching would label the cautious spies as "humble" and Caleb as "arrogant," Scripture shows the opposite is true. At 85 years old, Caleb still claimed his inheritance with the declaration: "I am as strong now as I was then." This wasn't pride—it was alignment with God's promise over his life.

Perhaps most striking is the revelation about King Saul, whose refusal to step into his royal identity wasn't humility but arrogance—he valued his self-perception over God's declaration. This false humility ultimately cost him everything. Meanwhile, Jesus demonstrated perfect humility not by diminishing His identity but by being so secure in it that He could serve others through foot washing.

Ready to break free from the chains of false humility and step into your full inheritance? This episode provides practical wisdom for identifying where you might be "hiding in your baggage" while God is calling you to something greater. Your breakthrough awaits when you finally take sides with what God says about you rather than what your insecurities, past failures, or others' opinions have told you.

How might your life transform if you stopped arguing with God about who you are and started believing Him? Listen now and discover the forgotten key to inheriting all God has promised you.
