"The deepest humility is the secret of the truest happiness, of a joy that nothing can destroy. Andrew Murray
People of great ability, confidence, and power are also people of great accomplishment. They have every right to be proud. Or do they? Andrew Murray poses the question, and God provides the answer.
Murray was a strong, capable man who was so "in control" that he tried to stop a revival in his church in South Africa for which his father had prayed for 60 years. But he soon discovered that power isn't rooted in pride. In truth, he learned that "pride goes before destruction."
God taught Murray the ways and rewards of humility, and it's relationship to faith, holiness, happiness, peace, and exaltation. He shares the lessons he learned the hard way. Cleverly organized, easy to read, easy to understand, and deeply profound, this classic has been acclaimed as the greatest book ever written on the subject of humility.

South African pastor and author Andrew Murray (1828 1917) was an amazingly prolific writer. Murray began writing on the Christian life for his congregation as an extension of his local pastoral work, but he became internationally known for his books, such as With Christ in the School of Prayer and Abide in Christ, that searched men's hearts and brought them into a deep relationship with Christ. Writing with an intensity of purpose and zeal for the message of the gospel, Murray wrote numerous books even after his "retirement" at age seventy–eight.

Paperback. Condition: Good. In the life of Jesus we have the perfect model of humility and surrender of the self so that God may be glorified. Understand the roots of pride and the one possible means of redemption from it. Study the examples of the disciples and of Paul. Pastor Murray includes in his book a call for church leaders to live humility in their personal lives. It's difficult to humble ourselves to anyone. We want to appear to have it all together, to be in charge, strong and fearless when in fact we know we are far from it. And as backward and illogical it sounds showing humility strengthens us especially when we admit to God we are weak and need His help. Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up. (James 4:10) By humility and the fear of the LORD are riches, and honor, and life. (Proverbs 22:4) Humble dependence on God is the basis of genuine blessing and In Humility Andrew Murray gives us a path to follow to gain through our own humility. Andrew Murray was a South African writer, teacher, and Christian pastor. Murray considered missions to be the chief end of the church. He was one of the founders of the South African General Mission (SAGM) later becoming the Africa Evangelical Fellowship (AEF) in 1965. Seller Inventory # 00104720815
