What does the Bible say about God's sovereignty over the proud?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that God rebukes the proud and those who err from His commandments.

In Psalm 119:21, the psalmist acknowledges God's rebuke of the proud who deviate from His commandments. Historical examples such as Cain, Pharaoh, and Haman illustrate this truth, showing how their pride led to their downfall. The sovereign nature of God is evidenced in how He calls whom He wills and allows the proud and self-centered to err from His ways. This highlights the importance of humility before God and adherence to His statutes.
