UNMOVED FAITH

UNMOVED FAITH Matthew 15:21-28 Devotional:- “And she said, "Yes, Lord, yet even the little dogs eat the crumbs which fall from their masters' table" (V.27) NKJV      Sometimes, by the principle of our response to life or obedience to God, we might not have been qualified for some things. But faith can qualify us. That is why Jesus said He has not come for the rich but that the poor may be rich. He has come to remove the barriers in the lives of people and to release them to their destiny.

DON’T CALL FOR ATTENTION

DON’T CALL FOR ATTENTION

Matthew 6:1-4
Devotional Verse:-“that your charitable deed may be in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will Himself reward you openly” (Vs. 4)

     


    Everyone loves to be commended and recommended. But the citizens of the kingdom of God allow God to prove them and do not call for attention by their good deeds. Some people call for attention by showing on TV how they give to the needy. If this is done with a motive of blessing others with the awareness of such privilege, then it is great, but it is not meant for show off. 
    In our Scripture today, Jesus tells us that we should be careful of how we do our good deeds to others so as not to miss our reward (Matthew 6:5). Remember that, the Bible says the glory of God should not be given to another (Isaiah 42:8). However, for whatever we do, we will be rewarded when the glory is giving to God. Calling attention to yourself is an act of taking the glory of God.
 
    To let all glory be given to God, we must not do our good works to show off. The moment we are waiting for people to applaud us, then, we are taking God’s glory. No one does that and receive the reward of God. We should not announce to the world the good works we are doing. If we do so, then we have already received our reward. When Jesus heal people, He often tell them not to tell it to anyone (Matthew 8:3-4, Mark 7:35-36). These are examples for us. For all your good works, you will not miss your reward in Jesus name. Peace!  
 
Prayer: Lord, help me to always return all the glory to you.
