How does God humble Himself according to the Bible?

Answered in 1 source

God humbles Himself by caring for His creation and lifting the humble from their lowly state.

The Bible depicts God as one who, despite being exalted, humbles Himself to behold the things in heaven and on earth. Psalm 113:6 states, 'He humbles Himself to behold the things that are in heaven and in the earth.' This humility is displayed in God's redemptive work through Jesus Christ, who took on human flesh to save His people from their sins. Not only does He recognize our lowliness, but He actively raises the needy and destitute, exemplifying His condescending grace. Isaiah 57:15 affirms this by conveying that God dwells with those of a contrite spirit, showing that His humility reflects His love and desire for relationship with humanity.
