Pride & Humility | Jonathan Pokluda

We don’t have to consciously try to be prideful, it just naturally occurs. The true test is overcoming this sin. In 1 Peter 5, God reveals to us that the source of anxiety is pride and humility is the solution. __

Actually bought a flip phone to not feed temptation, it's helped a lot. Good words of advice, pastor!

Watching from South Korea in 2023...😊 How amazing our Lord works to restore us!!

[queensarahforever]

This is so true I wanted so much love and then I watched thousand of movies and listened to thousand of romantic songs till I realize this is getting me anxious.

I come from a past of abusive relationships because I’m a good Christian woman who is humble and respects her man. Many men who do not know Christ take absolute advantage of that. I have now found a man of Christ and I’m learning now to not be afraid of being humble and knowing my position in the relationship and in the family. A real man will not take advantage of you being humble and obeying him, he will cherish you for it and so will the Lord.

God is using this man in a terrific way to reach the multitudes who have similar pasts and stories. A true redeemed man of God who points us to Christ in each message! What a preacher, what a messenger. So privileged to have him, Todd Wagner and other amazing pastors lead our church! Christ is King, Amen!

Great sermon! But anyone suffering from a diagnosed anxiety disorder should remember that a medical disorder is not the same thing as the sin of anxiety. Jesus plays an integral part in recovery either way, but those of us who did not and do not choose to be anxious but are anxious anyway because of an issue with our brains need to realize that medication and therapy are two powerful tools given by God to help us cope and heal.

I really needed to hear this tonight! I've been trying to figure out why I get defensive and try to justify what doesn't seem to be wrong, when pointed out, at the time and keep doing it. Thank you so much!!

JP, I don’t know if you read these comments ever, but I thank God for you. Your walk. Your struggle. Your sincerity and depth of despair. It helped me believe that I’m not alone in my struggle and that God has grace for anyone who can humbly accept it. Glory to God for making you and using you to work His will in the world. Your pain was necessary to give perspective that I could be reached years after you were saved. Love all you do at the Porch with David and Todd.

[buckeyenation]

One of the best messages I have ever heard. Lord you are so faithful.

[debarabian-looney]

This is the best sermon I've ever heard on Pride and humidity!!!! Thank you!!

[markhamilton]

One of the most powerful videos I've watched this year here in 2022 and getting this from 4 years ago . This blessed my heart so richly

[nicolemcclanahan]

Yes and thank you for bringing this word I was thinking I had a generational curse or hindering spirit due to everything thing being a struggle and constant opposition and setbacks But now I will see if humbling myself and repenting of pride alleviates any of these circumstances!

[Randyrenae]

I wish I could like this more than once. So good!

[sunnydaise]

" Anxiety that pushes you to God- that is a gift 🙏💙".

"I'm okay if I'm not known, preach the gospel, die, and be forgotten 🙂". Overlooked by man, maybe- noticed and adored by the One above though 🌈🙂!

[missybishop]

I love you. I love being CONVICTED and parables are the best things to help me picture and remember. I have an amazing memory but it helps. I wish I were in Tx

[JoshThewhiteDad]

16:50 17:30 that was amazing I’ve never heard it explained like that
