"But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves" (James 1:22).

Someone once wrote me a letter wanting to know how to overcome arrogance with God's help. He had been perceived as arrogant and genuinely wanted to dismiss that trait from his life and personality. Then I thought, that's a wonderful desire. Simply wanting to change was his first step toward victory over it.

But here's what you must do when you desire a change in any area of your life: act on the Word. Be a doer of the Word as read in our opening scripture. Respond to God's Word and live accordingly. So, in dealing with arrogance for example, you act on the Word. Ephesians 5:1-2: "Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children; and walk in love...." The key to overcoming arrogance is walking in love.

Then the Bible says in Galatians 5:22-23, "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law." The fruit of the Spirit refers to the natural product of the recreated human spirit, the born-again spirit. These qualities are part of your innate nature and love is one of them.

Galatians 5:19-21 lists the works of the flesh and arrogance is of the flesh. Choose to walk in humility, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, meekness, and self-control. These qualities are already within your spirit. Cultivate and develop them by walking in love. Every so often, declare, "I will walk in love." Make that decision, and you'll experience the glory of God in your life in a remarkable way, because love is His nature and the way of victory.

Prayer

Dear Father, thank you for your Word that purifies and renews my heart. Your love is fully expressed in me. I walk in humility, meekness and love toward others. Arrogance has no place in my spirit, for the beauty of Christ is seen and heard in my words, thoughts, and actions, in Jesus' Name. Amen.
