Your Validation Matters

March 20, 2013 by Church Without Shoes

GOOD NEWS ABOUT THE CROSS

John 6:14-15 Therefore when the people saw the sign, which He had performed, they said, “This is truly the Prophet who is to come into the world.” So Jesus, perceiving that they were intending to come and take Him by force to make Him king, withdrew again to the mountain by Himself alone.

Scott Purkey
Bay Summit Church

PERCEPTION // What I see/hear God saying/doing:
Never let the great things God does through me distract me from my first and greatest priority – spending alone time with God.

PLAN // What I am going to do about it:
Stay small in my own eyes

PRAYER // Seal the deal:
Lord, remove everything inside of me that wants the approval of others to validate my life and ministry. Raise up a core conviction in me that only Your validation matters, and what You say of me is the only thing I truly need.
