Proud - SonLight Daily Devotional for July 29

Proud
SonLight Daily Devotional Daily Devotional for July 29

James 4:6 "But He giveth more grace. Wherefore He saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble."

Proud people have no need of going to Church, because the god of this world has blinded their minds to the word of God. The proud will say, "Christians are brainwashed", "They cannot think for themselves", and "They are a weak people and need a crutch to lean upon".

The proud will live the way they want to, not once caring for the things of heaven. They live a life in darkness, only hearing what they want, and doing the things they want. The proud will give to charity, but say the Church is just out for the money. The proud will be good volunteers on Sunday, but refuse to walk into the House of the Lord.

The proud will always have some kind of rude remarks when they see the Christian walking into Church on Sunday.

The proud live in pleasure of this world. They lust after money, sex, drugs, alcohol, and power in the workplace. The proud when they die don't even have a name of a minister to bury them.

God truly does resist the proud.

Are you too busy for God, or are you one that does not believe in God? Pride is the force that is leading you.

The end of pride will be Revelation 20:11-15

And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.
And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.
And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire."
