God is good and is love, but He resists doing good at a proud one`s life. James 4: 6 says that the proud one pray for God, but He never answers his request but gives grace to humble ones. Many people say that they don`t know how to pray, but if you are simple and sincere, God will answer your request.

Never be arrogant; never exalt your deeds, before God. The best thing you can do is to be humble and simple. This way, you will receive your answer. Never compare your life to others. Be humble before God

Submit yourself to God means to obey God. The biggest example of faith that Jesus said He ever saw was the centurion, who said he followed the superior authorities. The origin of faith is in obeying. What the centurion used as an example, it was the obeisance. The insubordination took the man out of the Eden Garden. Insubordination brings defeats. If you obey God, you will never fall down. We have to be careful, pray, and watch out. While we have to obey God, we have to resist devil and he will run away from us. Devil never obliges you anything. He wants you to sin for you to be harmed; every suggestion he provides us with, targets our harm, and most of times, it comes as temptation. Our flesh is different form spirit, our spirit focus on spiritual issues, but our flesh tends to the world, to the desires, which draw us to sin. If you resist the desires of the flesh, and resist the suggestion of devil, he will leave away. Temptations are brief, so resist and they come to the end, but if you wrong, you will fall and the salary of sinning is death The suggestion is: Approach yourself to God and He will get closer to you. Do you want God in your life? Be close to God. God said He portalts about our sins and transgressions, but it just happens when we ask for forgiveness of our sins. The ones, who never ask for forgiveness, stock sins. Clean up your heart, ask God for forgiveness of your sins everyday because we wrong do everyday. With the weight of the sin, many people are drowning in faith. Always do ask the Lord for forgiveness. Try to obey Him, to submit yourself to God, and resist devil, and he will run away from you, he will leave your life in peace.
