Matthew 10:16 Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.
The Dove is known primarily for its humility while the serpent is recognized for its wisdom.
This is the divine instruction and key to succeed in this present world of deceit and rebellion. "Humilty is key". The haughtiness of man's heart is a string against the nature of God.
Why would the master want us to be harmless and humble amongst a violent and raging people?
Humility is total surrender and acceptance of thr Lordship of Jesus over your life. The only way to survive the violence of life is to be wise and humble. (Proverbs 15:33 - The scriptures says that the fear of the Lord is the instruction of wisdom).
The nature of the dove is a nature of humility just as the serpent is known for its wisdom.
Be wise...meaning FEAR GOD and be humble... meaning SURRENDER TO HIS LORDSHIP.
That's the secret of service to God because he will exalt you. The bible says that pride goes before destruction and a haughty spirit before a fall.
Humility is the link between service and its reward. The haughtiness of man's heart is destruction. 1 pet 18:12. It is the little key to great doors.
HUMILITY IS CHARMING !!!
