What does it mean to have true humility before God?

Answered in 1 source

True humility before God is recognizing our weaknesses and relying on His strength for righteousness.

True humility before God involves an acknowledgment of one’s own weaknesses and a reliance on God's strength and power for righteousness. As seen in the life of the Apostle Paul, humility does not mean being a pushover but being obedient to God rather than to our own sinful inclinations. This is evident in Paul's fear of how he would find the Corinthians and his sincere sorrow over their sinfulness. God's humbling power is necessary for a minister to remain faithful in his calling, being able to rebuke sin while mourning over it. This genuine humility produces a heart that seeks to glorify God in all actions and interactions.
