The attitude of sin that brought down satan himself is pride. In dealing with God, the one who created all things, holds all things together, and breathes life into us, it would not be wise to think too highly of ourselves or our own abilities, since God gave them to us. If you are above average, thank God! If you were born in a wealthy family, thank God! If you have great wisdom, or were given great skill in some endeavor, thank God! If you have great beauty so that people find pleasure in just looking at you, thank God! Don’t think for one moment that you couldn’t have been born to a poor family in a third world country, and raised on cactus, rice, or beans. God himself puts the spirit of a child into the mother’s womb. You could have gone elsewhere and had to live a very different life. Most of all, Worship the Lord if you have come to know about Him, and be saved by knowing Him over others that don’t know or understand, and who will spend eternity in Hell, and eternal torment. Praising God in every situation will keep you from: P R I D E.
