Satan Likes To Feed Our Egos
Pride is one of the most difficult things to ever overcome. Satan likes to feed our egos with our accomplishments because he knows how vulnerable we become when we are placed in front of the people. Throughout the Word of God we are shown this negative character trait when men allowed themselves to take the credit for their achievements and when this took place it was only a matter of time before God moved them from their position. No one likes to admit that they were wrong but what is the big deal in this? It takes more courage to admit a mistake than to hold on to the error.
I’ll never forget before my fall how my pride caused me to make bad decisions because I did not want to let others down and for how I was trying to prove something that was not my place to prove. It is more important to show that we are more interested in doing right than we are in looking good. When we allow our pride to interfere with what we know in our hearts to be true then we are not only hurting ourselves but we are hurting others as well. It is in our nature to put things off and think that we can fix the problem on our own but until we honestly address the real issue under God then we are only being robbed of the life that we can have.
It is amazing at what we gain when we finally figure out how to let it go and when we realize that we are not the ones in control. I challenge you to not allow your pride to rob you or someone else of what can be gained and learn from your past to help improve your future…amen
