How do we know that God's grace is humbling?

Answered in 1 source

God's grace is humbling as it requires us to acknowledge our sinful state and need for Him.

God's humbling grace involves recognizing our true spiritual condition. The story of Naaman illustrates this, as he had to strip away his proud identity and acknowledge his leprosy in order to be cleansed. Just like Naaman, we must come to God empty-handed, admitting our need for His grace. The act of humbling ourselves before God is essential because it teaches us that we are sinners who cannot save ourselves; only God's grace has the power to redeem us. This humbling is often uncomfortable, yet it is necessary as it allows us to receive God's mercy and healing. The humbling aspect of grace reveals our dependency on God and His sovereignty in our salvation.
