“Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall” Proverbs 16:18
Pride… is the root of almost every sin.
Why is pride so destructive?
Pride blinds us to who we really are.
Pride tells us we’re better than we really are; so there’s no need to repent or to change.
Do you pray,
“God, I thank You that I am not like other men.”
– or
“God, have mercy on me, a sinner“
Pride cuts us off from God, and also from others.
Pride puts us above others, which makes us look down on others, and cuts us off from them as a result; and we feel we don’t need God.
“What does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God” Micah 6:8
