Our enemy, the devil, who is the ultimate enemy of all mankind, uses the mathematical signs < > to confound us. In the mind of every human is the comparison factor. Are we more than or less than other humans. We can be less than by thinking that we are poor, uneducated, ugly, fat, stupid, or inept. We can think we are more than if we are super educated, witty, beautiful (handsome), rich or well off, live in a big house, make a lot of money, or have power over other people. The problem is in our thinking. How dare we think thoughts that don’t line up with our Creator’s thoughts. How can we compare ourselves to others, when everything we are and everything we have was created by Him and ultimately belongs to Him. He is the one who gives us breath, and life, and abilities, and if we will ask and believe, He will bring us out of poverty or pride, both of which are abhorrent to Him, and both of which are nothing but thoughts that differ from the Creator’s thoughts. “Lord, line our thoughts up with Yours!”
