Daily Devo 12/10/19

Today is Tuesday, December 10, 2019 and here is your Daily Devo.

Pride blinds us to God’s final authority over our lives. We celebrate our achievements, forgetting that every good and perfect gift is from above (Jas. 1:17). Puffing ourselves up is a practical denial that salvation is a gift that leaves no room for boasting (Eph. 2:-8-9) and that God has different assignments for every member of His family (Rom. 12:3-8). Rather than see our blessings as from Him and through Him and to Him (Rom. 11:36), we blindly hoard Christ’s glory for ourselves. Promoting our agenda leaves us valuing the gifts of heaven more than the Lord who gave them. Because of all these things, pride is first and foremost an issue of the heart. Only the heart that is set on the loving affection for God will fight against pride, whereas the heart set on itself will accept the false pretense that it is in control.

Think about this: What are some behaviors and actions that point to a prideful heart? Do you see any of these in yourself? What are some behaviors and actions that point to a humble heart? Do you see any of these in yourself?
