Read: Psalm 145 / Proverbs 01 / Isaiah 5 /Luke 18
Psalm 145:18 ~ The LORD is nigh unto all them that call upon him, to all that call upon him in truth.
Proverbs 1:33 ~ But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil.
Isaiah 5:21 ~ Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight!
Luke 18:11 ~ The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican.
To humble hearts, the Lord is near,
But He resists the heart of pride.
The problem that the Lord makes clear
Is arrogance He sees inside.
The Pharisee who proudly prayed
Was wise in his own estimation.
The humble publican displayed
A heart that yearned for God’s salvation.
