Pride – We have interpreted this word to be good, sometimes…. We are “proud” to be American, and that’s apparently ok. We’re proud of our last name, and that’s apparently ok. We’re proud of the job we did last week, and that’s apparently ok.

The Bible says that pride always comes before fall, always. It never says a certain pride is ok. It never says that you can have pride in anything you want, as long as you don’t have pride in yourself. All the Word ever says about pride is that God Himself opposes the proud and that they will fall, not maybe.

Pride is showing one’s self above others or showing something above Christ. Many Christians fail to walk in all that God has given them because they refuse to put Him first in their lives. Sure, they may call Lord, they may say that He is Lord over their lives; but until you do the things that He says, He isn’t.

When we expect to receive from God how we want to receive we nullify the power of God. This is pride working in our life; thinking that we know more than God. When we want to do things our way we have exalted ourselves above God.

How can we call Him Lord without doing the things He tells us to do? We cannot rationalize what God is telling us to do, rather we are to put on the mind of Christ and let Him live through us.

Proverbs 29:23   ²³A man’s pride shall bring him low: but honour shall uphold the humble in spirit.

Do you have a poverty mentality? Maybe you believe that all your need is met according to the riches and glory in Christ Jesus. Maybe you say you believe you are rich because He (Jesus) became poor so that you could be rich.

But let me ask you this; do you think things are expensive? Last week I was having a conversation with someone and they said that one of my hobbies was expensive. It made me wonder what provision they were looking at.

I mean would a rich person say that something was too expensive? Would they say “that’s too pricey for me?” No, I highly doubt it! I don’t even think that they would consider the cost. They wouldn’t even look at the price tag.

I’m sure if they wanted it all they would tell the sales person is; “I’ll take it”. That’s the problem with most people though; they always look at the price tag, not realizing that the price has already been paid!

Why do you always act so surprised? “I can’t believe God blessed me like this” should never come out of your mouth. We often seem so surprised when things go right for us. Life seems to astound us and we say stupid things like “I wish life could be like this all the time”.

I’ve got good news for you, it is; you just have to be willing to accept it. See, Jesus paid the price for everything you would ever need in your life. He paid with His blood so that you wouldn’t have to go without.

I John 4:17 says that as Christ is in heaven, so are we in this World. Jesus has established us in a place of health and prosperity, all we have to do is accept it.

Hope is often our biggest stumbling block. Hope sees. Hope is your vision (how you see things) and until you see your- self and your circumstances different, they will never be different.

Hebrews 11:1 says that “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for”. Simply said, you may have the faith to move the mountain, but because all you see is the mountain, it will never move.

Until you can see the mountain moved, it will never move. Until you see yourself working you’re dream job, you never will. It like the old adage says “you gotta “see it” to believe it.

Until you begin to “see” things, you will continue to be surprised by life. Surprises can be good and surprises can be bad, and until you start seeing the life the you desire, your life will always be able to be summed up in one word – “UNCERTAINTY”.

Psalm 135:16 ¹⁶They have mouths, but they speak not; eyes have they, but they see not;
