When people praise or compliment us we should redirect it to God lest we puff up. God is a jealous God and He will not share His glory with anyone. Let us seek His honor and not the honor of men. Let us humble ourselves. We are neither wise nor strong on our own. He gives us everything. Isaiah 42:8 I am the LORD, that is My name; and My glory I will not give to another nor My praise to carved images. Jeremiah 9: 23-24 Thus says The LORD: Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, let not the mighty man glory in his might, nor let the rich man glory in his riches; but let him who glories glory in this that he understands and knows Me, that I Am the LORD, exercising lovingkindness, judgment and righteousness in the earth. For in these I delight, says the LORD. James 1:17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above and comes down from the Father of lights in whom there is no variation or shadow of turning
