“The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek after God: God is not in all his thoughts.” (Psalm 10:4)
Pride has been listed as one of the seven deadly sins. The Bible says that pride goes before destruction. The prideful, wicked man says in his heart that he does not need God and therefore will not seek God or the ways of God.
God is not in all this man’s thoughts. He never thinks about God. The New American Standard Bible says, “All his thoughts are, there is no God.” In either translation pride keeps this wicked man from turning his life over to God.
What about you? Have you surrendered your life to God, admitting that you are a sinner in need of a Savior? Every person of Adam’s race is a sinner by nature and a sinner by choice. Christ Jesus, the Son of God died on Calvary’s cross to pay our sin debt and arose from the dead to give us life. I encourage you to receive Him by faith. You will never be sorry you did.
