God would cut one down and raise another up. The deaf shall hear . . . Just as much as these are miracles in the natural realm, they are miracles in the spiritual realm also. We need to humbly seek God for ears to hear and eyes to see. The humble and the poor have their joy in the Lord .
Pride is the enemy of joy.
We can be proud and have fun , we can be proud and have success , we can be proud and experience excitement , and we can be proud and be happy because of happy circumstances. But we cannot be proud and have joy in the Lord , or to whatever degree we are proud, we are missing joy in the Lord . The proud can never have joy in the Lord if they are in humble or poor circumstances. It extends to bringing justice upon the wicked. The restoration of God s people.
