Previously, we saw that pride makes a person to become a god to himself. Pride also makes a man’s life to revolve around himself and to revolve around yourself is to be caged in a shelf.
Therefore, a proud fellow cannot become anything remarkable in God’s Hands.
Now, how do you deal with pride?
i) Resist Pride vehemently
Pride is a spirit called a haughty spirit (Proverbs 16:18). Resist the lifestyle of pride. Command and curse the haughty spirit by saying, ‘You foul spirit of pride, you have no place in my life; you have no place in my lineage, get out haughty spirit!’ (Luke 10:19).
ii) Present yourself continuously before God
Present yourself to God permanently at the altar of consecration. Tell God, ‘I am nothing; there is nothing I am that You are not the reason. I recognise You, Lord, as the reason for my success in life.’ Present yourself to God continuously in submission and worship (Romans 12:1-2, 1 Corinthians 4:7).

iii) Always remember where you are coming from
Remembering where you are coming from is building a memorial altar of appreciation before God. The memorial altar is where you remember where you used to be and where you are currently. Always remember that you are nothing if not for God. You did not do anything differently or better than the people who are not yet at your level (1 Corinthians 15:9-10).
Beloved, decide to deal with the lifestyle of pride in order to fulfil destiny.
Remember this: Pride makes a man’s life to revolve around himself and to revolve around yourself is to be caged in a shelf. Seed Of Destiny Today 30 September 2018
