God-complex

“Because your heart is lifted up
And you have said and thought, ‘I am a god,
I sit in the seat of the gods
In the heart of the seas’;

Yet you are [only] a man [weak, feeble, made of earth] and not God,
Though you [imagine yourself to be more than mortal and] think your mind is as [wise as] the mind of God —

Behold, you are [imagining yourself] wiser than Daniel;
There is no secret [you think] that is hidden from you;

With your [own] wisdom and with your [own] understanding
You have acquired your riches and power
And have brought gold and silver into your treasuries;

By your great wisdom and by your trade
You have increased your riches and power,
And your heart is proud and arrogant because of your wealth;

Therefore thus says the Lord God,
‘Because you have imagined your mind [to be]
Like the mind of God [having thoughts and plans like God Himself] ..'”

~ Ezekiel 28.2-6 AMP

Nothing good comes out of a god-complex situation. "Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall." (Proverbs 16.18 KJV)
