We need to teach and preach much on pride. It took the devil down and will take us down quickly, if we forget that every victory, and every good thing comes from the Father above through the Blood of Jesus! Proverbs 16:18 states that: “Pride goeth before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall” (KJV). God will straighten you out if you begin to think too highly of yourself. The best way to avoid this is to be aware incessantly that God is God, and Jesus is LORD, and to acknowledge these things at all times. This keeps the flesh under. Humility is a choice, just as our LORD humbled himself to become a mere man and be born in a barn to parents of low estate. Wow, if He can do that, we can stay small in our own sight also! We are vessels of HIS Glory, and cannot do anything by ourselves, but all things through HIM! If you get off track, repent and get back to knowing that He gives wisdom and knowledge, just like the prophet Daniel, who became a very great man in Babylon. Daniel 2:21 states: “He giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding” (KJV). Daniel always knew where his abilities and brain power came from. Stay humble, and nix the pride!
