You think I am altogether like you, but you are mistaken. I speak and No one listens. You filter my words through your preconceived ideas and Your brand of theology. Look, even the demons tremble! But you treat My word as if it is the mere babblings of men.

You have pride! When I send someone to speak my word to you, you say, 'I already know that'. Behold you know nothing yet as you ought to know It!

You are blind! You are like a cripple trying to hold others up. Therefore you will topple because your pillars are pride!

Only repentance will open your eyes. You say I am strong in the Lord-yet the truth is you are strong in your own willpower! If you will Drink pride, you will be snared by it. The enemy will invade because of Your drunkenness.

I will not share my glory with another!

I speak and you should tremble with fear. I spoke all things into Existence and I could wipe it out with a thought or a quick sigh. Yet For my son's sake, I restrain my terrible destruction.

You are choosing your own ways above my council. Behold, the sword!! Only those that fall on their faces before me and humble themselves in The presence of my word shall escape the damage of the sword! I will Swing my sword north to south and east to west-woe to you who are in the Middle! Yet my mercy is everlasting to those who seek my grace.

When will you admit your need? I desire to give you the kingdom, but I Will not give to those who think they already own it! I gather under My wings the humble. When pride comes, you are out from under divine Protection. Repent, and I will restore!

Luke 13:34,35
