Well, when we are poor and limited, we are humble,
when we start a business or project, we are ready to accept everything as advice and input,
when we are pursuing a goal and it is not yet reached, we are calm, smiling, polite.
We do not leave our claws yet, we are still in a weak position.
For us who are awake, we are humble, we love God, we are exemplary Christians and we are aware that everything depends on God.
But when the moment of glory comes, the moment of strange progress, the moment when we stride up to the high places, we start to be very busy, we start to have no time to pray, we start to find that others are parasites and they interfere, we see ourselves above others, we want a prestigious position in the Church, we are full of zeal, of pretensions, we think that we can say everything and do everything, we become arrogant.
The arrogance, this vice that deprives us of all that God wants to give us.
Arrogance and pride are brothers.
It’s just esteem, self-confidence or the ego, we say to justify our mistakes.
The arrogant knows everything, he is proud of him, he overestimates himself, he is not very appreciated and he does not care because he knows he knows.
We tend to be children of God in finding ourselves in this case when God is blessing us, when the Lord raises us.
How many of us prostrate, humble, or hunch knees during worship?
We feel tall, beautiful, too well dressed to kneel.
We see Christians who owe money to others and when the creditor claims his dowry, we inflate and threaten to curse them because we are anointed and God uses us.
Pastors who stand on the altar of God to sell the things they have blessed or to ban coins in their churches during offerings, which push Christians to go into debt to make colossal seeds to be blessed because they have the anointing.
We use what God has given us to belittle others, to neglect them, to humiliate them, to crush them …
Our money, our car, our social position lose us and we set our values aside to trample in the mud.
Let’s hear what the Bible says about this
Ezekiel 28: 5 – By your great wisdom and by your trade you have increased your riches, and by your riches and by your riches your heart has risen.
Fast and pray not to become arrogant after making progress.
It is unfortunately how we are when we are comfortable, our hearts do not know that we are equal, we do not recognize the place of God in our glory, we show everyone that it is our own we believe we are great businessmen with flourishing ideas.
The lesson God gives us this morning is simple.
Stop arrogance
It takes us away from the glory of God, it affects us and imprisons our lives.
When God blesses us, it is an opportunity for us to be humble instead of departing from the Lord’s way.
Let us show humility and Jesus will make us and our goods a reference.
Hello family
Have a good day
