DAY THIRTEEN // TEACHABLE

Scripture Reading: Proverbs 13:18 AMP & MSG

One area The Lord has been teaching me in lately is pride.  Many times I'm finding areas of pride can be small and subtle.  I've began asking The Lord to show me those areas in my life where pride has crept in.

The key to living free of pride is one word.  TEACHABLE. Being unteachable is the highest form of pride.  It's exalting yourself and saying your way is right.  We must remain teachable and open to the Lord and His loving correction and direction for our lives.  Verse 18 tells us to heed correction.  The Message translation says to embrace it.

Today, embrace (hold on to) the correction and instruction the Lord gives.  Open your heart to it and say no to pride in your life. This will bring you to a place of honor! (Verse 18)
