Pride Goeth Before DestructionSample

Haughty Spirit. 

According to Strong’s Concordance the Hebrew word for “Haughty” is, ‘gobahh’ (H1363) which means, “exaltation and grandeur”. One who exalts himself shall be abased. Matthew‬ ‭23:12‬ ‭KJV‬‬ states, “And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.” The haughty is selfish, self centered and self absorbed. 

In Isaiah‬ ‭14:12-15‬ ‭KJV‬‬, Lucifer was haughty: “How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.”

Self exaltation will always cause you to fall. Let God raise you up. Let God build you up. Let God promote you. Let God take you to the next level.

God is the author and finisher of your faith and every aspect of your life including your destiny. Let God lead your path. Your destiny and success is in His hands. He gave you the skills to accelerate, enlarge and advance. ‬‬Humble yourself and destroy pride.
