Stool

Scripture Passage: Luke 14:8-10

The devil was the first to try and take a seat he was not worthy of. He wanted to sit on God's throne. Revelation 12 says that he was thrown out of Heaven for his pride. Jesus advises us to be humble and not let pride push us ahead of others who may be more important than we think we are. Importance comes from the respect and esteem of others and not from our pride.

3. How can we become important people?

For the proud will be humbled, but the humble will be honored.  (NLT)
