"Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you at the proper time" -1 Peter 5.6
1 Peter 5.6 continues the theme of humility, taking it further. 1 Peter 5.5 focuses on the humility among members of the community, 1 Peter 5.6 focuses on humility before God. Humility must go beyond just human relationships, but begins with our attitude towards God.
Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God- Because God gives grace to the humble, choose to be humble before God
that He may exalt you at the proper time- God does not overlook humility, and those who choose to humble themselves will be exalted
1 Peter 5.6 talks about what awaits the humble, and leads into what humility requires.
Fight the lion, 1 Peter 5.1-11
TO GOD ALONE BE THE GLORY!
