God’s Word is complete! “Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall.” Proverbs 16:18
Sometimes the greatest threat to a good plan is not failure but the desire to take the credit. Many people lose their elevation the moment they begin to compete for glory.
The truth is that what sustains us often times requires humility to preserve it.
Remember, God’s Word in 1 Corinthians 4.7: What do you have that you did not receive?
Here are some Lessons to remember from this story:
* The need to receive accolades can make people forget what is really sustaining them is not by their wisdom or strength.
* Humility protects opportunities that arrogance can quickly destroy.
* Many blessings are lost not because the plan failed, but because ego interrupted the process.
* Every gift, opportunity, and idea we possess is something we have received, not something we truly own and God gave them to us for a purpose, to bless others with it and therein be blessed too.
Wisdom sometimes can simply mean staying humble long enough for God’s purpose to take you where you cannot reach by yourself.
