YOUR MOTIVES ARE ALWAYS TESTED BY GOD (PART TWO )

Jun 2, 2020 | Devotional | 0 comments

Grace and peace to you. Here is the word for today.

📖 Philippians 1:15 It’s true that some are preaching out of jealousy and rivalry. But others preach about Christ with pure motives.[NLT]📖

✍PEOPLE CAN DO THE RIGHT THINGS FOR THE WRONG REASONS/MOTIVES.
Paul said there were those who preached the gospel out of ENVY and RIVALRY. He goes on to say they are preaching out of selfish AMBITION.Their aim was to stir up trouble for the Apostle Paul. Can you imagine out of ENVY and RIVALRY they are preaching a message of peace and love?

🔷️WHY DO WRONG MOTIVES OCCUR?🔷️

â–ŞWhen a person puts their own needs first rather than the purposes of GOD.
â–ŞWhen a person puts their own needs first rather than the needs of other PEOPLE.
â–ŞWhen a person desires to be the center of ATTENTION even at the expense of those around them.
â–ŞWhen a person has SELF-AMBITION of acquiring influence, power, or wealth.
â–ŞWhen a person has dreams of becoming known or seen and admired by many.

QUESTION TO PONDER UPON
🤔 When last did you do the right thing with a wrong motive?
🤔 When last did you pray for something, but with a wrong motive?

Today check your motives, it could be the cause for your un answered prayers. May the Lord help us all in these areas in Jesus’ Name. 🙏🙏🙏
