One byproduct of simple obedience to God is that it exposes our inner iniquities of pride, vanity, envy, rebellion, and self-will.
One of the simplest ways to walk in humility is simply to obey God and let Him humble you in the process of your obedience.
Obey the Commandments of the Most High, Obey the Gospel of Jesus Christ, Obey the Commandments of Jesus Christ, obey the Ordinances of Jesus Christ, and Obey the leading of the Holy Spirit.
The Word of God will fill you with joy and set you apart at the same time.
There will be conflict with others as you press into humility through obedience.
Whatever God likes – keep doing, even if it makes you humble. Whatever the devil hates – keep doing, even if people with the devil in them don’t like it.
Allow God to remove those that are haughty from your presence, because He already removed them from His presence first.

7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
8 Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded.
