A Prayer to Resist Pride by Rachael Adams

When we lay down our pride and embrace humility, we open the door for deeper relationships, greater service, and God’s favor in our lives.In today's episode, Rachael Adams shares a moment of offered help revealed how easily pride can keep us from receiving blessings God places in our path. Through the example of John the Baptist, we’re reminded that true greatness comes from pointing others to Jesus, not ourselves.

Reference: Luke 18:14

Prayer: Lord, change the posture of my heart. Reinforce that my purpose is to point people to you. Forgive me for behaving pridefully. I know you oppose the proud and show favor to the humble. Help me to be content to let you take the higher place. May I accept help willingly and offer aid generously. In Jesus' name, amen.
