1 John 2:8b

 

Proverbs 15:33
The fruit of our life depends on the honor we have for God. When God plans to promote us, we go through experiences that make us humble. Success and failure in life depend on how we use honor.

The attitude of our heart must be one of respect. A lack of respect for others is evidence of pride. Pride shows that we are immature and produces our demise as shown in the condemnation of the devil.
