PRAYER FOCUS - Against The Spirit of Pride

So many times in life we walk in pride.   Proud of what "we" have done.   To "proud" to ask for help.   But what we don't; understand is that pride is a spirit.   We have to understand that it is not God's desire that we be prideful.    He told us in His word over and over again to walk in humility.   

Let's pray today for humility.    That we....that this world....be not prideful and arrogant.    That the humility and love of God overtake us in all that we do and we say.

SCRIPTURE REFERENCE

Psalm 10:4
The wicked one in the pride of his countenance will not seek, inquire for, and yearn for God; all his thoughts are that there is no God [so He never punishes].
Psalm 76:12
He will cut off the spirit [of pride and fury] of princes; He is terrible to the [ungodly] kings of the earth.
Proverbs 13:10
By pride and insolence comes only contention, but with the well-advised is skillful and godly Wisdom.
