ATTRIBUTES OF PRIDE
By
Eze Gilbert
Obadiah 1:3 KJV
The pride of thine heart hath deceived thee, thou that dwellest in the clefts of the rock, whose habitation is high; that saith in his heart, Who shall bring me down to the ground?
Daniel 5:20 KJV
But when his heart was lifted up, and his mind hardened in pride, he was deposed from his kingly throne, and they took his glory from him:
Yesterday we saw the attributes of pride:
1. Persecuting the poor
2. Doesn't seek God.
Today We continue with no
3. His heart is lifted up high beyond measure because he thinks no one has what it takes to bring him down.
Your business is established,
Your company has series of jobs lined up and many more will come because the connections are strong and stable,
Your church has already had good branches in choice locations with well-to-do members,
Your IQ level is unbeatable so you are almost indispensable, etc.
Sir/ma, one time remembrance by God like He did to Nebuchadnezzar, everything will be gone in seconds.
4. He has a hardened mind.
No one says what he hears, no subordinate or follower has what it takes to counsel or correct him in areas of mistakes.
You should remember that it was a maid that couselled Naaman to wash himself in a local river and get healed, and
It was a hungry person that directed King David to the right location of pursuing, overtaking and recovering all; even though he was on course in God's direction and will.
Humble yourself.
Whatever you know is in part.
Whatever you have, you are still poorer than someone.
And where ever you are is someone's previous position or dwelling place.
Respect the giver of your gifts and humble yourself before all.
Pride brings down even the mighty.
Let's be careful.
