This is episode # 24 “Pride” Hosea 7:10 KJV And the pride of Israel testifieth to his face: and they do not return to the Lord their God, nor seek him for all this. Psalm 10:3 (KJV)For the wicked boasteth of his heart's desire, and blesseth the covetous, whom the Lord abhorreth. The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek after God: God is not in all his thoughts. His ways are always grievous; thy judgments are far above out of his sight: as for all his enemies, he puffeth at them. Proverbs 29:22-24 (KJV) An angry man stirreth up strife, and a furious man aboundeth in transgression. A man's pride shall bring him low: but honour shall uphold the humble in spirit. Whoso is partner with a thief hateth his own soul: he heareth cursing, and bewrayeth it not. Isaiah 14:12-14 (KJV)How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. 2 Chronicles 32:26 Notwithstanding Hezekiah humbled himself for the pride of his heart, both he and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that the wrath of the Lord came not upon them in the days of Hezekiah Pride focus on self, independent from God. It is synonymous with arrogance, foolishness, evil, and wickedness. It’s all about I and nothing about God. It is directly opposed to the humble, God-fearing, meek, lowly, trusting, faith-filled disposition that is pleasing to God. Set your eyes on Jesus, learn and live humility so we can become more Christ-like. It’s not about me, Its about Jesus.
