Luke 18:12 KJV — I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess.
Reflection on God’s Word for Today - 03 Oct 2024
Does today’s scripture sound like you or remind you of someone you know? It is not uncommon in church communities to hear such arrogant boasts from those who are definitely misguided. Your observance of religious rites is a matter that should be private to you and not for public broadcast as it serves no one any purpose. All it does is to inflate your ego and, honestly, nobody needs that. Jesus says when you fast you should let it be a secret between you and Jehovah. And you should know that your being faithful with tithing is primarily for your own benefit. So if you relish in boasting about fasting and tithing I urge you to stop it henceforth so you can start to reap the benefits of those actions.
Pray: Holy Lord, teach me to be humble as You enable me to wait on You and obey Your command. #Mok
