What is Pride

Labels:

Pride is when you believe you are always correct and have no desire to learn from others.

Unfortunately, many of us are unaware of the potential that awaits us if we can just let go of our pride and follow God's plan. In fact, the Bible goes so far as to warn us that God despises the sin of pride and will punish those who practice it! Let us not consider ourselves "wise in our own eyes," but rather humble and open to learning from God and others! Satan is the king of pride and his children exhibit his characteristics (John 8:44).

We are motivated by pride to exaggerate the importance of our thoughts. It causes us to elevate our opinions and elevates the importance of meeting what we perceive to be our needs, even above God's and, of course, far above our fellowman's.

Signs that you have pride

  • You are slow to apologize or repent to others.
  • You lack acceptance or patience for other people's ideas, issues, or emotions.
  • You appear to have complete control over your life.
  • You have a low opinion of people who react negatively to their ideas or comments.
  • You resent yourself for knowing everything.

How to overcome pride

You can overcome pride by learning to accept other people's corrections. Keep in mind that the devil's downfall was caused by pride. If you humble yourself, the Lord will exalt you.

Understanding Destiny Swapping: A Hidden Agenda Over Your Purpose (PART 1)

Have you ever felt like something is off in your life—like you're living a life that doesn’t belong to you? You're talented, passionate, and full of dreams, yet doors remain closed and progress is mysteriously delayed.

Destiny swapping is a spiritual manipulation where one person’s divine destiny is exchanged, stolen, or traded—often without their knowledge—for another person’s benefit. It happens when dark powers, witches, false prophets, or envious individuals manipulate or hijack the divine plan God originally intended for someone’s life. In simple terms, destiny swapping means you end up living a life that is not yours, while someone else is living the blessings, favor, or opportunities that were m...

Why You Find It Difficult to Recover Your Destiny

Have you ever felt like something precious was stolen from you—your purpose, your dreams, or even your sense of direction in life? Many people go through seasons where they feel lost, stuck, or unable to step into the future they desire. If you’ve been struggling to recover your destiny, there are often deeper reasons behind it. Let’s explore some spiritual and practical factors that might be making it hard for you to walk in your true calling, especially looking at the role of covenants and agreements. 1. Unresolved Spiritual Covenants and Agreements One major reason people struggle to recover their destiny is because of unseen spiritual agreements or covenants, knowingly or unknowingly entered into. These can include: Family covenants: Sometimes ancestors made pacts for protection, wealth, or power that now affect future generations. Personal agreements: Visiting spiritual practitioners, taking part in certain rituals, or even careless words (“I’ll never succeed”) can create spiritu...

Signs That Someone Stole Your Destiny, Identity, or Star

In the spiritual realm, your destiny, identity, and star represent your divine purpose, potential, and the light God placed upon you. These three areas—if hijacked through witchcraft, occult rituals, soul ties, or demonic covenants—can cause intense stagnation, confusion, and hardship in your life. Many people walking through life today are not carrying what originally belonged to them. They’ve been spiritually robbed. If you feel like something is "off" but can't quite explain it, the following signs might confirm what your spirit has been sensing. 1. Chronic Delay and Disappointment Every time a breakthrough seems close—whether it’s a job, relationship, or financial opportunity—it gets delayed or falls through mysteriously. Doors that should open easily shut unexpectedly. 2. Persistent Identity Confusion You no longer recognize yourself. You feel like you’ve lost your drive, passion, and clarity. You find it hard to even describe who you are or what you’re called to do....
