Let's not allow pride to prevent us from the promises of God.
Pride is a sin. Most of you reading this, know this to be true.
It’s so easy to get caught up in pride, your accomplishments. In our culture today, it’s natural to expect recognition for a job well done.
But, what does this convey to God? He’s probably thinking, “well if they can do it all on their own, what are they going to need me for?”
God has so many promises to those who love and obey Him. He loves blessing us in our attempts in being fruitful.
Don’t let pride get in the way of His promises.
Purposely recognize that God is in everything we accomplish.
I’ve done it. I’ve relied on my own ambition and pursuit and left God out. This only left me empty, tirelessly trying to find a better way on my own.
Pursue God daily and I can testify that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him. Don’t allow pride to steal the joy of knowing a loving God.
Proverbs 11:2 - “When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with humility comes wisdom.”
