First pride, then fall

September 11, 20243 min read

Pride will cause a fall. Guaranteed.

Pride is a sin that can subtly creep into our lives, especially in the competitive world of entrepreneurship. As Christian women entrepreneurs, it's crucial to recognize and combat pride to lead with humility and grace. The Bible offers profound wisdom on overcoming pride and embracing a life of humility and service.

Understanding the Sin of Pride

Proverbs 16:18 warns, "Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall." This verse highlights that pride often leads to downfall and destruction, affecting not just our personal lives but also our professional endeavors.

Applying Biblical Principles to Overcome Pride

  1. Practice Humility: Philippians 2:3-4 teaches, "Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. Let each of you look not only to his own interests but also to the interests of others." Embracing humility involves valuing others and prioritizing their needs and interests.

  2. Seek God’s Guidance: James 4:6 reminds us, "God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble." Seeking God’s guidance and grace can help us maintain humility and avoid the pitfalls of pride.

  3. Serve Others: Mark 10:45 states, "For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many." Serving others and focusing on their needs can help us keep pride in check and foster a spirit of humility.

Practical Tips for Combating Pride

  • Acknowledge Your Dependence on God: Regularly remind yourself that all achievements and success come from God’s grace and guidance.

  • Celebrate Others’ Successes: Instead of focusing solely on your achievements, celebrate the successes of others and offer genuine praise.

  • Seek Feedback and Learn: Be open to constructive criticism and view it as an opportunity for growth rather than a threat to your pride.

By applying these biblical principles and practical steps, we can overcome the sin of pride and cultivate a spirit of humility, enhancing our effectiveness and relationships as Christian women entrepreneurs.

Our Signature Method That Has Generated

Millions for our Clients

Seek

Phase 1 we step back and look at your life, your faith and your calling. We teach you how to hear the Holy Spirit, learn how to productively rest and learn how to hear the cries of your people so we can serve them.

Serve

Phase 2 you get clarity on how you are called to serve. We look at branding, setting up email marketing, landing pages, messaging and content creation. You learn the language of the people you are called to serve, how they describe their problems and what they need to be helped.

Sell

Phase 3 is where we teach you sales skills and the sales process as well as set up all your systems in order to take payment and make your online presence automated so that you can spend your time serving your people.

Scale

Phase 4 is to increase your product suite and also her your team. We teach a process of hiring unpaid college interns as your first onboards so that you can learn leadership and also help the next generation learn business.

Send

Phase 5 is to create a succession plan for your business. Are you planning on selling? Passing it to your children? Is the income meant to help you in retirement or just get by? Are you planning on leaving a legacy with this business?

Sounds like a lot, huh?

While it can feel like a lot to step into those bold callings, we don't do it alone. This is what makes us different. We always lean into the Word of God for our source of strength and teach all levels and denominations of faith what it means to bring the Holy Spirit FIRE

into your life.
