Voice Of Truth – Casting Crowns
Putting Our Plans Before God
Over the last few days, I’ve heard a consistent theme of, ‘caution’ and ‘pride’. Proverbs 16:18 Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall. I have watched that proverb play out in churches, ministries and businesses. As Christ followers become successful in life, there is a great danger we will look to our own abilities and understanding instead of placing our hope and strength in the Lord.

1 – Is there a wanted poster in hell with you name on it? In other words, are you causing the enemy so much trouble he is sending his minions after you?

3 – Is the Jesus in side of you reflected in your daily walk?
Blameless
I have led a far from perfect life, even after returning to the Fathers house. I work hard every day to glorify the Lord in everything I do. When I mess up I take full responsibility for my actions and ask for forgiveness. I then work very hard to not repeat my mistake. As Christ followers that can be our only response when we mess up.
