Focus: God Resists the Proud

WORD FOR TODAY
Exhibiting pride at any level of life is an invitation to resistance from God. Pride is an evil trait of the devil in the life of a man that puts a man out of God's grace, mercy and favour!!!
************************************
Scriptural Reference
"Therefore He says: "God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble." (James 4:6b NKJV)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We know a man who possesses an evil spirit that will destroy him through pride. One of the ways to know and identify a man who is going down the drain is pride. God himself will become your ultimate resistance each time you think of yourself more highly than you ought to.

Pride begins when a man fails to acknowledge God in his ways. Proud people always think they are who they are by their efforts and intellect. They believe that men fail simply because they are not serious or because their effort is not enough. They are people who don't believe that there is a measure of God in the life of every man created by God and treat people with respect to their class, position, title, tribe, condition and age.

They don't acknowledge their wrong doings and weaknesses; they are always too big to admit the fact that they need help in various aspect of life. They are strong willed people who do not forgive those who offend them. God said to the proud, He will be a resistance. He will never walk with them but against them!!!
________________________________
Question For Meditation:
+ In what way are you exhibiting pride?

Prayer Point:
Lord! Help me to be humble always, I will never be proud in Jesus name. Amen!!!

Main Emphasis:
Where there is pride there is destruction because God himself will supervise the fall of the proud!!!

Have a Terrific Thursday!!!
