6 Bible Verses about Trusting Yourself

In fact, we felt that we had received a death sentence so we would not rely on ourselves but on God, who raises the dead.

Jesus also told this parable to some people who trusted in themselves, thinking they were righteous, but who looked down on everyone else:

"If I tell the righteous person that he will certainly live, if he trusts in his own righteousness and commits evil, none of his righteousness will be remembered, and he will die because of the wrong that he commits.

Whoever trusts in himself is foolish, but whoever lives wisely will be kept safe.

"But you trusted in your beauty. You did what whores do, as a result of your fame. You passed out your sexual favors to anyone who passed by, giving yourself to anyone.

Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not depend on your own understanding.
