POPULARITY
SummaryIn this sermon, Pastor Phillip challenges the congregation to examine the role of pride in their lives and how it prevents them from fully embracing the Great Commission. Drawing from 1 John 2:15-17 and 1 Peter 5:5-7, he explains that pride is uniquely dangerous because it is the only sin that cannot see itself. While other sins like addiction or greed can be recognized by those who struggle with them, pride distorts a person's self-centered perspective into what feels like absolute truth.The solution offered is humility. Rather than clinging to status, spiritual credentials, or the temporary things the world offers, believers are called to cast their anxieties on God and humble themselves under His mighty hand. Through personal stories and a vivid example from a youth camp, the speaker illustrates that when people choose humility over pride, God is faithful to exalt them in His timing. The sermon closes with a pointed reminder that the very judgment we direct at others is often a reflection of our own blind spots.Key Verses- 1 John 2:15-17- 1 Peter 5:5-7- Psalm 34:18- John 3:16Life ApplicationThis week, choose one relationship where you have been holding onto a posture of pride, whether that means needing to be right, needing to be recognized, or avoiding an honest conversation. Take a practical step toward humility in that relationship. It might be sending an apology, asking for someone's perspective without defending yourself, or simply praying for that person each day. At the end of the week, reflect on how that act of humility affected both you and the relationship.Key Takeaways- Pride is uniquely dangerous because it is the only sin that cannot recognize itself, making self-examination and accountability essential for every believer.- Loving the world means attaching your identity and worth to temporary things like status, recognition, and material gain, all of which are passing away.- Humility is not a one-time decision but a lifelong practice of submitting yourself under God's authority and trusting Him to exalt you in His timing.- The judgment we direct at others often reflects the very blind spots we carry ourselves, and genuine humility requires us to assume we are part of the problem before pointing at anyone else.- Choosing humility, even when we believe we are right, opens the door for God to work in ways that pride would have permanently closed off.

Step into your royal identity. Join us for Purim: https://curtlandry.com/register Are you ready to align with God for the coming harvest? In this episode of the Curt Landry Podcast, Rabbi Curt is joined by Pastor Philip Thornton of Legacy Faith Church, who shares a powerful prophetic word he received about Purim. The deliverance in the book of Esther was not purely a supernatural miracle, but God working through willing vessels who were in positions of authority to reverse the curse. In the same way, God is reversing decreed curses as Believers arise in Kingdom authority, positioned and equipped for this moment. The nations are being shaken because God is shaping them and revealing His people. Satan is responding with strife and chaos because he is afraid, but he cannot alter God's time clock. The spirit of Haman will be exposed, and the arm of the Lord revealed as the revelation of Jesus goes out into all the earth. Join Rabbi Curt and Pastor Phillip as they unpack this prophetic word, discussing set times and portals, the need for unity among generations, and a prophetic shaking that establishes righteousness and roots out wickedness.
