How can you believe, when you receive glory from one another and do not seek the glory that comes from the only God?
How great You are Lord, worthy of honor and praise. With a sincere heart we desire to obey You, not in the way of eye-service, as people pleasers but as those sincere to do Your will so You are glorified. Remind us Father daily of Your truth in this time when vanity rages, charm is deceitful and beauty is vain. For truly beautiful is the one who fears You Lord. How much time we waste with empty pursuits, vain imagination and desires for accolades from the world. By Your Spirit make us aware of the areas of our lives that draw us to pools of water that distorts our reflection to think we are more than we actually are. These thoughts are deceptions that keep us bound seeking recognition, acceptance and honor from others. Instead Lord we pray that You would be our focus. You raise up those who humble themselves as we can do nothing on our own. Jesus, You did not seek Your own will but the will of God the Father who sent You. Help us Lord to seek Your will to love mercy, do justly and walk humbly with You daily. Then our lives will be full and satisfying so the glory of Your goodness with shine all around. Father great is Your faithfulness and You promise to see to completion the work that You have starting in each of Your children. So please Lord forgive us as we turn from our self promoting, people please ways and walk circumspectly with You the rest of our God given day. We love You Jesus and thank You for Your precious blood that cleanses us from all our iniquities. In Your matchless name we pray and give thanks, amen.
Ephesians 6:5, Proverbs 31:30,
