He is Able to Humble the Proud

Nebuchadnezzar's conclusion in regards to God's character after seven years living in the fields like a wild beast (Dan 4.37). God had humbled him. God IS able to humble the proud, but if we finish this story and all we take out of it is that Nebuchadnezzar needed to be humbled and consequently was humbled then we miss the point altogether.

We are the proud. I am the proud. I am Nebuchadnezzar. Sobering thought, no?
