because he magnified himself

IMG_1578Jeremiah 48

Moab’s judgment will humble it, and the nation will be destroyed and will no longer be a people.  The reason is pride.  Moab magnified himself against the LORD.  Just because you are winning does not mean that you are a winner.   Real success is lasting success, and that only comes to those who fear and love the LORD.  The Moabites have learned that lesson.  Have we?

LORD, we renounce our successes and acclaims.  We trust in you, and seek your kingdom and righteousness.  We will not magnify ourselves against you.
