  • Pride will deceive you, but humility reminds you of the Truth that is greater than yourself (3)
  • Pride gives you a false sense of security, but humility leads you to trust in the all-sovereign King (3-9)
  • Pride causes harm to others, but humility seeks to help others (10-14)
  • Pride brings God’s judgment upon you, but humility will help lead you to salvation (1-2, 15-21)
  • Ways to help you kill pride and live in humility…
    • Ponder the greatness of Jesus (Isaiah 6)
    • Pray for humility (Matthew 7:11)
    • Pray for others–especially those you would have a hard time treating well (Matthew 5:44-45)
