The Danger of Pride: A Biblical Warning

📖 Introduction

Pride is one of the oldest and most persistent human struggles. It can quietly creep into our hearts, distorting our perspective and leading us away from God's truth. The Bible repeatedly warns us about the dangers of pride, showing how it can unravel relationships, destroy communities, and separate us from God's blessings. Proverbs 16:5 calls out pride as detestable to God and declares that whoever embraces it will stumble.

In this 3-day study, we will explore the spiritual risks pride presents, the contrast between pride and humility, and practical ways to surrender pride to live in alignment with God’s will.

The journey through this study invites us to deeply consider how pride shows up in our thoughts, words, and actions. It challenges us to lean into God's wisdom rather than our own understanding. As we dive into God's Word together, be open to His gentle correction and grace. Let us grow in humility, recognizing that our strength and hope rest not in self-exaltation, but in God’s sovereign love and mercy.

Join us on this life-changing path as we uncover what the Bible teaches about pride and how to live joyfully free from its destructive grip. May this study strengthen your faith and cultivate a humble heart attuned to God’s beautiful plan.
