Pride doesn’t just make us arrogant—it deceives us.
In this verse-by-verse Bible study through the opening verses of Obadiah, we examine God’s warning to Edom and discover how pride distorts our view of ourselves. Like a photo editing app that changes reality, pride convinces us that we’re stronger, wiser, and more secure than we truly are.
The nation of Edom believed they were untouchable. Living high among the rocky strongholds of Petra, they trusted in their position, their alliances, and their own wisdom. But God exposed the lie they believed and showed them how vulnerable they really were.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
• How pride deceives the human heart
• Why Edom believed no one could bring them down
• What Obadiah teaches about self-deception
• How God’s Word exposes the lies we tell ourselves
• The difference between our self-perception and God’s truth
• Why humility begins with seeing ourselves as God sees us
God’s Word functions like a mirror, revealing reality even when our hearts want to believe something else. When pride tells us lies, Scripture brings us back to the truth.
Whether you’re struggling with pride, studying the book of Obadiah, or seeking biblical wisdom for spiritual growth, this episode will challenge you to examine your heart in light of God’s Word.
Scripture Covered:
Obadiah 1-9
