Scripture:
John 5: 44 "How can you believe, when you receive glory from one another and you do not seek the glory that is from the one and only God?"
Observation:
God is setting our priorities straight. how to not be hypocrite Christians. We as christian say we read and try to live life according to God. Yet we get distracted easily. The world itself is distraction, filled with competition (to look better, make more money, status, size of our house and job). We live in a place where we live to meet expectation, and that is how we get judged. Trying to live up to others expectation we lose focus on God. We get caught up with material things versus trying to become one like God. Hence, we try to juggle our self. The only expectation, acceptance and approval we need to seek is to glorify our God and his Son Jesus Christ.
Application:
Life without glory of God is meaningless. All the blessing life is given by God, at a snap he can take that away. Start slowly and daily instead of investing my time to gain material achievements, which are immaterial to God, take that invest to do God's will and to bring glory to his kingdom. Stick to God's words and guidance they are present from God for our ultimate salvation and to save me and deliver me from evil. Disregard what other may judge me by, reset my priorities and refocus to exceed God's expectation.
Prayer:
Heavenly Father, help me to glorify in your name. Pray this time you will mold me to be a servant of your grace and mercy. I may work toward your light to become one with you. Thank you for all the blessings which I take for granted, Give me the heart to serve you and only you.
