05/27/20 TEN YEARS AGO

I posted this 10 years ago, based on what God said thousands of years ago.
Still true.

Like impervious armor, nothing seems to penetrate and destroy PRIDE. Concerning this foolish/wicked person, God said, Therefore pride compasses them about as a chain; violence covers them as a garment (Ps. 73:6). Eventually pride imprisons and destroys the one who is proud. God said, Pride goes before destruction and haughty spirit before a fall (Ps. 16:18); He also said, ...Be Not Proud... (Je. 13:15).

THE WORD...

The word of God is able to separate a man from his sins, including pride. This is why a person needs to accept the searchlight of heaven to uncover the dark secrets of the heart and to purge out the corruptions which destroy the proud.

Psalms 139:23-24
23 Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts:
24 And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.

Hebrews 4:12
12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

If the proud remain unresponsive to God, there is no hope for them.

Proverbs 26:12
12 Seest thou a man wise in his own conceit? there is more hope of a fool than of him.
