How does God's sovereignty relate to our humility?

Answered in 1 source

God's sovereignty reveals our dependence and need for humility before Him (Daniel 4:35).

God’s sovereignty is foundational to our understanding of humility. When we see God as the absolute sovereign, as expressed in Daniel 4:35—'He doeth according to his will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth; and none can stay his hand'—it becomes clear that our efforts and decisions are ultimately governed by His divine will. This realization humbles us, as we understand that our worth and identity are not based on our achievements or pride but on God’s grace. A recognition of His control over all things leads to a proper attitude of humility, as it debunks the delusion of self-sufficiency.
