ARE YOU LOOKING FOR ANSWERS AS TO WHY IT HAPPENED TO YOU?

Yes,  God is faithful enough even to *reveal it* to you! He is faithful enough to give you understanding of the whole situation because God is good and there’s none besides Him nor no one behind Him!

We are Made in the image of God; Meaning  we are fully dependent on God!

The initial sign that one is headed to a fall in their life is a proud attitude.
Pride, arrogance, self approval, and demeaning others are all signs that will lead any successful person to a painful fall at one point of their lifetime.

Pride comes before a fall and there’s no doubt about that.
When one starts to deny the truth that life is actually an active everyday journey with no arriving, they often tend to view themselves as having “arrived in life” or they have already “reached.”
This life attitude is always false and misleading in that it tends to make you feel that you don’t need assistance, you are enough on your own, or that you are an island and can actually thrive alone.

Pride is
1. when one gradually stops relying on God’s provision of answers to life’s puzzles..
2. they stop seeking God for direction in life and
3. they become completely comfortable leaning towards their own understanding to meet their needs!

We are made in the image of God, which simply means that we are fully dependent on God!

Once you start seeing yourself as having seemingly “reached” wherever it is you are heading to in life, you can as well start packing for your vacation to pride Inn and even start the process of branding yourself legally as a proud star!

The truth is that the closer that God allows you to draw towards His presence and access more of God’s knowledge, the more less you get to be or the more humble you become. Remember “the higher you go the cooler you become!”

Sample the case of Gideon.

And the LORD said to Gideon, “The people who are with you are too many for Me to give the Midianites into their hands, lest Israel claim glory for itself against Me, saying, ‘My own hand has saved me.’
Now therefore, proclaim in the hearing of the people, saying, ‘Whoever is fearful and afraid, let him turn and depart at once from Mount Gilead.’ ” And twenty-two thousand of the people returned, and ten thousand remained.
But the LORD said to Gideon, “The people are still too many; bring them down to the water, and I will test them for you there. Then it will be, that of whom I say to you, ‘This one shall go with you,’ the same shall go with you; and of whomever I say to you, ‘This one shall not go with you,’ the same shall not go.”
So he brought the people down to the water. And the LORD said to Gideon, “Everyone who laps from the water with his tongue, as a dog laps, you shall set apart by himself; likewise everyone who gets down on his knees to drink.”
And the number of those who lapped, putting their hand to their mouth, was three hundred men; but all the rest of the people got down on their knees to drink water.
Then the LORD said to Gideon, “By the three hundred men who lapped I will save you, and deliver the Midianites into your hand. Let all the other people go, every man to his place.”
