Why not substitute it with (humanly-speaking):
if (something is_not_equal_to something_else) then abort with error
I believe something like this could work in SAS:
%let abort=0;
....... here determine the value of myvalue to be tested
%if &myvalue > 4 %then %let abort=1;
%if &abort %then %goto DONE;
....... continue with your program, assert is passed here
%done:
%if &abort %then %put ERROR: Assert failed.;
