Pride

“Cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give His angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou shall dash thy foot against a stone.” – Matthew 4:6

However you see it, that’s going extreme with your privileges. Just that the angels would catch doesn’t mean you should go ahead and have a fall. You will not only hit your foot against a stone, but you shall surely break your legs.

Jesus answered well, “don’t tempt me”.

Verse 7

“Thou shall not tempt the Lord, thy God.”

Don’t allow anyone push you to misuse (or over use) what privilege/authority that God has given you.

Deal with your pride, for pride has killed many a giant.
