1.) Anger or short temper.
In most cases, a person who has pride magnifies himself and he tends to see offences against him also magnified. Pride is a very impatient sin hence it quickly translates to anger or short temper. People who are proud do not want to be wronged. A proud man considers things as atrocious or intolerable that are said or done against him.
2.) Quitting
Anyone who quits is proud and has familiarity, with God and his leader. Any woman who packs their bags from a husband every time when angered is full of pride.
3.) Lying, Gossiping.
Do not lie to elevate yourself to another level. Humility is the ability to recognize each other’s gifting and importance. Always be yourself and pray to discover purpose.
4.) Competition.
Competition is the opposite of cooperation. It arises whenever at least two parties strive for a goal which cannot be shared or which is desired individually but not in sharing and cooperation.
5.) Jealousy
The, “it must be mine not hers” type of behavior/complaining spirits. Jealousy is seen when you look at someone who is blessed and you feel unhappy. It is mostly found among brethren in church, siblings, peers etc
6.) Fighting with people.
Fighting with people is a sign that you want to prove you are powerful, that is pride.
7.) Rebellion of any kind
8.) Argumentativeness
9.) Procrastination
You can be stubborn and refuse to accept rebuke because the spirit of pride does not want to accept that you can make mistakes and you can rebel against your spiritual parents.
All this type of behavior is at the end of the day catalysed by familiarity, you will not be afraid to talk back or even rebuke your own spiritual parents. Whenever you see a wing of pride growing you prune it quickly, do not entertain it even for a minute, because you can miss your blessing from where it is supposed to come from.
