SYMPTOMS OF PRIDE

Pride Has No Sense Of Reverence For Anybody
One of the symptoms of pride is that, the carrier of pride will have no sense of reverence or respect, no matter how little for anybody both young and old.
The most dangerous bad attitude in life is Pride. Because it can reduce a man's life to zero.
   Recently, I was mentioning to a group of people that, whosoever is older than someone has a special grace and influence over him/her, even if it is just a week. If you disrespect such fellow, the age will ask you. This is one of the reasons why so many people have remained unprosperous in life, they are full of pride, they find it so difficult to reverence the elders,their leaders, especially their Spiritual leaders, they disrespect any and everyone.
    If any man must be fulfilled and successful in life, He does not only need to be serious and hard-working, he also needs to take all the life Principles for greatness very serious. However, one of the life Principles for greatness is that we should respect and give honour to the elders, but it is a very difficult thing for a proud man to reverence anybody.
   Even God that created us knows how vital is the issue of Respect for elders, therefore when He was dictating His laws to His chosen, the Israelites, He said "Rise in the presence of the aged, show respect for the elderly and revere your God. I am the LORD." Leviticus 19:32.
   It is a truth that a proud man can not be great because of his act of disrespect for God, In that bible verse, God said when you respect this aged people, you Revere(Respect) me also. So, anyman who does not respect God can not walk in the Light of His favour and no God's Favour no greatness in life. Again, if anyman is great and allows pride to creep into his life, such a man will fall flat beyond repair.
   Youths especially need to take these things very serious because it is very common and easy for youths to disobey and disrespect elders. It takes the mercy of God for any youth who finds pleasure in disrespecting and being proud to the elders to be great in life.
