TODAY'S BIBLE VERSE

When pride cometh, then cometh shame: but with the lowly is wisdom. Proverbs 11:2

​​​Memorize this Verse: (Cover the verse text and using just the first letters of each word try to recite the entire passage.)
​2. W P C T C S B W T L I W

Notes on verse:

“Pride” comes from a root word meaning to boil or run over, indicating an overwhelmingly arrogant attitude or behavior.

In 1 Timothy, we read what happens when we are overcome with pride.

1 Timothy 3:6 “Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil.”

It is very important not to be self-centered and caught up in pride. We are what God has allowed us to be. In 1 Timothy 3, the wickedness in the last days lists pride as one of their sins. We must stay humble to please God. The humble have a teachable spirit which is firstly directed to God. A wise person realizes that everything he or she is comes as a gift from God and not of self.
