DEALING WITH SELFISHNESS

The downfall of many men and nations has been the consequences of selfishness. In doing away with self-sins we should keenly battle out selfishness. King David, one of the greatest men to have ever lived followed his pleasure blindly which led him into a very catastrophic state.

BEASTLY MEN

“…They are presumptuous, self-willed. They are not afraid to speak against dignitaries, whereas angels, who are greater in power and might, do not bring a reviling accusation against them before the Lord. But these, like NATURAL BRUTE BEASTS made to be caught and destroyed, speak evil of the things they do not understand, and will utterly perish in their own corruption.”  

(2 Peter 2:10-12) 

GOD’S FIVE (5) WORDS AGAINST LUCIFER’S FIVE (5) “I WILL” STATEMENTS

Lucifer was once an angel (precisely the anointed cherub that covers, Ezek. 28:14) described verily as the son of the morning. He has become a profane thing because he fell in love with his glory and beauty and wisdom; he eminently became proud and self-centered. His prideful rebellion was demonstrated by five (5) “I will” statements against God. The five statements that Lucifer made as recorded in Isaiah 14:13-14 are;

1.      I will ascend into heaven

2.      I will exalt my throne above the stars of God
