Humility is one trait of a true child of God. Anyone who realises how much he or she has been helped by God will know that there's really nothing to be proud of in this world. David understood God as his Source and Sustainer; he exhibited the trait of humility.
After David killed Goliath, he continued serving humbly in Saul's palace, playing music to soothe the king. He did not think service was beneath him. Even when Saul offered him his daughter, he didn't think himself worthy of such an honour. After he succeeded in paying the required bride price for Michal, he still humbled himself despite being the king's son in law (1 Samuel 18:23,30).
While in the wilderness, David sent his men to salute Nabal but he insulted David's men. David was going to fight. However, Abigail met him on the way and entreated him and he listened to her (1 Samuel 25:32-35).
After David ascended the throne, his humility still shone when he was challenged by Nathan for his sin. He was already a king at this time; he could have commanded Nathan to be locked up for building up enough effrontery to confront the king but instead, he humbly repented. He chose not to cover his sin.
When Absalom was banished after killing Amnon, Joab knew that the king's heart longed for him. He sent a woman to speak to David in parables. David, being a wise man, discerned that Joab had sent her. He honoured their request and returned Absalom (2 Samuel 14:1-23).
On many occasions, David displayed humility. He was humble enough to always seek the face of God before going for any battle because he knew God alone could give him victory.
Beloved, herein lies a great lesson for us today. God resists the proud but gives grace to the humble. It is therefore not surprising that David enjoyed massive grace from God. Take a cue from David today and learn to live a life of humility.
