Reborn to Flourish, Part 7: Pride
The message, "Reborn to Flourish, Part 7: Pride" was delivered on location at 60 Bailey Ave., Manchester, NH, for First Fruits Ministries Sabbath celebration on 8/8/2026.
"Reborn to Flourish" is an exposition of Proverbs 6:16-19—a passage that identifies seven things opposed to God's heart. At the center of the passage is the love God has for His children and His call for us to return to Him. The series will work backward through the list, identifying discord as a fruit that comes forth from a heart rooted in pride and other fleshly concerns. It will then emphasize God's transformational love that will revitalize the root and send forth tender branches and bountiful fruit.
Topics covered in Part 7: In the seventh message of the series, we are going to tear out the root of the wicked tree, which is pride, and replace it with the Godly humility that allows the ground to receive the Word of God. Pride is at the root of all wickedness, and everything that stems from it results in discord, separating men and women from one another and from our God. Pride sits in hard ground that cannot receive the Word of God and therefore cannot bring forth life. God hates this, because He does not will any of His children to perish, but for all to come to repentance and dwell with Him and one another for all eternity in His Kingdom. He looks for the humble in spirit who are ready to surrender to His perfect and righteous will. Souls like these offer the Word of God pliable and fertilized ground to grow in. Ultimately the Word planted in such ground grows into the good tree that produces fruits of love, joy and peace, leading to unity with God and His people.
