Humility or Hell
“He leads the humble in what is right, and teaches the humble his way.” Psalm 25:9 (ESV)
If we are not humbled under the headship of the Lord Jesus Christ, our conceited hearts will lead us to hell. A boastful man can not accept help or guidance, but a humble man is willfully able to accept Christ’s grace and freely learn of Him. This is why Satan is content to lead church members into the temptation of religious legalism, because the old covenant system of works stands against humility.
Let’s pray today that we may resist the devil’s temptation to boast and resist humility.
