Summary: A false person speaks about himself and seeks his own glory not that of who sent him
May the peace of the Lord be with you.
Topic: DON'T SEEK YOUR OWN GLORY
John 7:18King James Version (KJV)
18 He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.
Beloved, we are never ever as Christians, supposed to seek our own glory for any purpose or whatsoever. The only glory we have to seek is that of Jesus.
In doing this, He who has sent you would Himself glorify you. Jesus sought for the glory of God and in doing that God glorified Him.
Don't be caught up in the worldly pride game that involves showing off and flaunting all you have all over with no acknowledgement of Jesus Christ.
Any prophet or teacher or pastor or apostle who is false and unrighteous seeks his own glory. It's not all about the words they speak but their actions more.
When people present themselves as servants sent by Jesus, study their speech, then actions. The two should agree and they should both glorify Jesus Christ. Any disagreement between the two and there is a problem.
This is not about sins and forgiveness and so on but about who he gives the glory to. Anybody who by his actions shows off as if his source of Power is he himself is false and unrighteous.
All false people speak about themselves instead of speaking Jesus. Check their messages, they are all adulterated and their focus is not Jesus but something or someone else. Becareful!!!
Even if such was called by God, know that He has deviated from his calling and lost his way. He is now going according to the pretenders who claim to have been called.
Beloved, never seek self glory but that of God Almighty and His Son Jesus. Whatever God gives you or does for you is to glorify His own name. The benefit is for you to enjoy but the glory is for Him.
Listen to people and watch their actions to know where they belong. Listen to people and watch their actions to know whether they have deviated from their call or they are still on the right path.
Dont be deceived by words and prophecies, listen to the speech and study the actions and make sure they both agree in giving glory to God.
Every Christian must live this life of giving all the glory to Jesus and no one else because it is not about you or a pastor or prophet or teacher or apostle or evangelist or any other person but
*IT'S ALL ABOUT JESUS*.
Prayer: Father please help me to seek the glory of Jesus and Jesus alone. In the mighty name of Jesus I pray. Amen.
