God's Promises Regarding Pride
Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty
spirit before a fall. Proverbs 16:18
If my people, which are called by my name, shall
humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their
wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin,
and will heal their land. 2Chronicle
7:14
Thou hast rebuked the proud that are cursed, which
do err from thy commandments. Psalms
119:21
Thus saith the LORD, Let not the wise man glory in
his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might, let not the
rich man glory in his riches: But let him that glorieth glory in this,
that he understandeth and knoweth me, that I am the LORD which exercise
lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these
things I delight, saith the LORD. Jeremiah
9.23,24
The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and
arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate. Proverbs
8.13
For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not
many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are
called: But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound
the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound
the things which are mighty; 1Corinthians
1:26,27
But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God
resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble. James 4:6
