    Pride goes before destruction.Whosoever exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted. You cannot do any good unless “the mighty hand of God” is with you! Therefore, be humble and look to His hand for all success.

    “Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall” (Proverbs 16:18). Pride, the first-born son of hell, unclean and vile, is a ringleader and captain among iniquities, daring and God-defying sin. It has nothing lovely in it. Pride exalts it head, and seeks to honor itself; but ...read more
