TOPIC : PRIDE, A DESTINY KILLER
TEXT : DANIEL 4:29-32
[29]At the end of twelve months he was walking in the royal palace of Babylon.
[30]The king said, Is not this the great Babylon that I have built as the royal residence and seat of government by the might of my power and for the honor and glory of my majesty?
[31]While the words were still in the king's mouth, there fell a voice from heaven, saying, O King Nebuchadnezzar, to you it is spoken: The kingdom has departed from you,
[32]And you shall be driven from among men and your dwelling will be with the living creatures of the field. You will be made to eat grass like the oxen, and seven times [or years] shall pass over you until you have learned and know that the Most High [God] rules in the kingdom of men and gives it to whomever He will.
Dearly beloved, the story of Nebuchadnezzar is an example of what level of devastation pride could wreck in the life of a man.
Pride drove king Nebuchadnezzar away from the dwellings of normal people.
This means that each time we allow that evil spirit called pride to possess us, we undergo a transformation from being a man to a beast.
The major reason that makes God to hate
Pride is because,
It drains one of human emotions and leaves him absolutely Godless.
It is a beastial spirit that drives the carrier towards the high way to hell.
Pray daily against the spirit of pride.
God bless you.
With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.
Your case is not bigger than God.
May you have a God filled day in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
Your Victory is already guaranteed
It is well, do not give up, with God all things are possible
(Please be a blessing to seven persons by sending to them our devotionals)
