MISGUIDED ZEAL




Let our commitment in God’s kingdom service never be construed for selfish motives. Let not your prayer fervency be interpreted for self defense.

Let your zeal for soul winning be in line with the will of God and never self seeking. I mean, let it not be seen in your Christian hard work in God’s vineyard only for the promotion of your denomination.

It can be meaningless and unrewarding if your ministry strategies are purposed for personal gain and fame. Let it not be read that the uniforms, T/shirts, stickers, tracts, magazines, CDS, videos etc produced by your church are meant for pride and self elevation! 

“Therefore whoever humbles himself as this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.” Mt 18:4. “And whoever desires to be first among you, let him be your slave” Mt 20:27.

“But he who is greatest among you shall be your servant. And whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.” Mt 23:11,12.

Oh Lord, help us to humble ourselves for Your glory in Jesus’ Name…
