How does God reveal Himself to the humble?

Answered in 1 source

God reveals Himself to the humble and lowly, not to the wise and self-righteous.

The Bible reveals that God delights in revealing Himself to the humble, as indicated in Matthew 11:25-27, where Jesus thanks the Father for hiding His truths from the 'wise and prudent' and revealing them to 'babes.' This is significant as it demonstrates God's grace in choosing those who acknowledge their unworthiness and need for Him, rather than those who rely on their own understanding or righteousness. In contrast, the self-righteous often miss the truth, as they are blinded by their own pride and works. Isaiah emphasizes that without humility, understanding and salvation will remain concealed from the heart.
