Pride and Punishment

By the grace and mercy of God, when the very painful punishment which was prophesied in his dream of the tree was poured-out upon King Nebuchadnezzar, he came to his physical and spiritual senses and gave praise, honor and glory to the Most High God of heaven, thereby powerfully portraying for us as God’s people the fact that not only must we personally seek to rid ourselves of all such pride, but also that our all-powerful God is able to crush the personal pride of even the most mighty monarch on the fact of the earth and receive unto Himself the glory, honor and adoration of which He alone is worthy!
