PRIDE, God's Number One Enemy

It’s funny cause I was just thinking about Pride and how some people are so full of themselves. Pride is GOD’S number ONE enemy. And fair enough I came across this verses. (“Likewise you younger people, submit yourselves to your elders. Yes, all of you be submissive to one another, and be clothed with humility, for ” God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble.” Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time.) If u don’t want to be resisted by God just humble yourself b4 him and leave pride alone for the bible says ” (Pride goes before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall,”) The devil was cast from heaven to earth because he was full of PRIDE and that pride let him into disobeying God. He desired to be God, not to be a servant of God. Just Check out this “I will” statements from him.Isaiah 14:12–15How you have fallen from heaven,O morning star, son of the dawn!You have been cast down to the earth,you who once laid low the nations!You said in your heart,“I will ascend to heaven;I will raise my throne above the stars of God;I will sit enthroned on the mount of assembly,on the utmost heights of the sacred mountain.I will ascend above the tops of the clouds;I will make myself like the Most High.”But you are brought down to the grave,to the depths of the pit.”
Here are some scriptures on pride   
•    Proverbs 16:18   
•    Isaiah 5:21   
•    Job 40:12  
•    Proverbs 26:12   
•    Mark 9:35    
•    2 Corinthians 10:18   
•    2 Corinthians 10:17   
•    Luke 16:15
All I am trynna say is that have HUMILITY and always trust in de Lord no matter wat. And that way he will give u GRACE. Don’t ALLOW pride to have a place in ya heart for GOD hates Pride. “What is highly valued among men is detestable in God’s sight.” Keep in mind “PRIDE IS A DESTROYER” and don’t let it destroy ur life.
Be Blessed
