THE SUGAR OF PRIDE.

PRIDE IS LIKE SUGAR IN YOUR SPIRITUAL FUEL TANK - IT CLOGS YOU UP INSIDE - CLOGS UP YOUR HEART.

IF YOU PUT SUGAR INTO A FUEL TANK - THE SUGAR DISSOLVED IN THE FUEL SLOWLY CLOGS UP THE ENGINE AS IT USES THIS CONTAMINATED FUEL UNTIL SUDDENLY THE ENGINE BREAKS DOWN - THE DRIVER DID NOT KNOW THAT AN ENEMY HAD PUT SUGAR IN HIS FUEL TANK.

PRIDE DOES THE SAME TO US IN THE SPIRIT - YOU MAY NOT KNOW THAT PRIDE HAS GOT INTO YOUR HEART UNTIL YOU FALL.

WATCH YOUR HEARTS - WATCH THE ENEMY DOES NOT PUT THE SUGAR OF PRIDE IN YOUR FUEL TANK.

THE ONLY WAY TO STOP THIS IS TO STAY HUMBLE BEFORE THE LORD.

STAY PURE - KEEP YOUR FUEL PURE - KEEP YOUR HEARTS PURE.

FOR PRIDE COMES BEFORE A FALL - THE LORD OPPOSES THE PROUD - BUT THE HUMBLE HE LIFTS UP - REPENT - SUBMIT YOURSELVES TO GOD - THEN RESIST THE DEVIL AND HE WILL FLEE FROM YOU - FOR IT WAS THROUGH PRIDE THAT THE DEVIL FELL FROM HEAVEN.

WATCH YOUR HEARTS WHEN THE LORD IS USING YOU - GIVE ALL THE GLORY TO THE LORD - WATCH FOR THE FEAR AND FAVOUR OF MAN IS LIKE A SNARE - IS LIKE SUGAR TO YOUR HEARTS.

STAY PURE - WATCH YOUR HEARTS - KEEP YOUR FUEL PURE.
