Topic: More Critical Facts About Pride
Humility is key to instruction. Pride on the other hand, deprives people of instruction.
SCRIPTURE: But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble. James 4:6
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Reality is far from the proud. They live in a world of fantasy and fallacy.
It has been confirmed that humility is key to instruction. Pride on the other hand, deprives people of instruction. That is why God is ready to release instruction to humble people but resists the proud (James 4:6).
Personally, in my life, I can ask anyone any question when I am looking for anything. I don’t care if the person is my child. Pride, however, makes a person to be too arrogant to be instructed. A proud person is ignorant, yet he can’t be instructed. And where there is no instruction, there can be no distinction; where there is no instruction, there is no destination. A proud person cannot achieve anything in life because instruction is needed for a change of level.
Now, take note of the following key facts:
Pride makes a person to arrive at a place of self-satisfaction (Dan. 4:30)
Pride makes a person arrive at a place of self-satisfaction and that leads to stagnation. He does not see his need for progress. He always says to himself: “I am doing very well. I have done more than everybody else.” Pride leads to self-satisfaction and that leads to stagnation.
Pride blinds people to reality (Pro. 16:18)
Proud people are reality-blinded. Reality is far from the proud. They live in a world of fantasy and fallacy. So, calamity often becomes their portion. They don’t see things as they are.
That will never be your portion in Jesus’ Name!
Remember this: Reality is far from the proud. They live in a world of fantasy and fallacy.
