S – Scripture
Mark 7 v. 6 These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me.
O – Observation
Isaiah prophesied this, now Jesus says it to. This must be a common problem with men. It’s called pride. Religious Pride must be the worst. Jesus really gave it to those people. As people get involved in Church, pride can sneak in. Satan uses this as a great Neutron Bomb. Devastates the soul, but leaves the body intact. Proverbs 11 v. 2, “When pride comes, then comes disgrace.” Pride makes you think about what people see verses what God sees. Last thought. Proverbs 6 v.16-17, “There are six things that the Lord hates…. #1- Haughty eyes. Do you know what is the definition of haughty? Look it up!
A – Application
Am I focusing on Jesus or on how Good I look focusing on Jesus?
P – Prayer
Jesus, Remove ANY religious pride from me. Love Will.
