... . . PRIDE ! PRIDE! PRIDE!
THE GREATEST ENEMY OF MAN
Phil.2.3 - Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves.
Phil.2.4 - Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others.
Phil.2.5 - Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus:
Phil.2.6 - Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped,
Phil.2.7 - but made himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness.
Phil.2.8 - And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient to death--even death on a cross!
Pride is one of the most dangerous tools used by Satan to deceive many today even in Church. Surprisingly I realized that many servant of God boast and over estimate themselves, while regarding it as honors. The manipulative dimension in which they lifted this honor thing is what amazes me the most. Some go as far as cursing people for not honoring them as though it was a right. My brother, my sister if the fact that you go to places and people don't honor you by giving you, a sit on the high table, altars, front sit, they don't usher you in, or add august titles to your name still hurt you. My dear, you are sick of what I call "Ignorant/stupid Pride". Repent before it's too late for you. One of the way the devil uses to build up self pride in many is through motivational speakers and self development coaches.. I remember 10-30 years ago these doctrines were not rampant or were quasi inexistent, people were still growing up businesses and building up self with the normal moral values and knowledge of the fear of God. When a man start believing in himself and trusting his ability more than he trust and believe in God it's a huge problem. Remember the reason why Satan was cast down on earth was because of his pride and arrogance. The reason why we are here is to worship the one who made us. But when you begin to feel too big and you require worship and praises from your fellow brethren , know ye that you are equating yourself to your maker something even the master himself did not do. Pastor, Prophet, Evangelist, teacher, Apostle who is your example????? Whose teachings are you following???? Jesus is coming soon and the bible makes to understand in Matt 24:47-51 each of us shall be rewarded accordingly. The choice is yours to make and the time is now. of hope # # # #.
