The sin of pride is something that every human being struggles with. We're born with a pride nature and we buck against anything or anyone who tries to correct that part of us. But the first step toward overcoming pride is identifying it in our lives.
But He gives more grace. Therefore He says: “God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble.” James 4:6 NKJV
Pride is a sin. It most likely is the more dominant of all sins. It’s said that other sins spring and take root from this very destructive sin. The above bible verse is a warning to the proud and is a promise for the humble. Pride is the self-confidence of our self-importance, whereas humility is the recognition that we are weak, unworthy, and fully dependent upon the Lord Jesus Christ.
God promises ‘grace’ to the humble.
