ONE OF GOD'S GREATEST CHALLENGERS, SELF. 3 Big Selfies: Self-serving resumes, Self-honoring charitable giving and Self Righteousness

"Bondservants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh, not with eye service, as men-pleasers, but in sincerity of heart, fearing God. And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men, knowing that for the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ.
But he who does wrong will be repaid for what he has done, and there is no partiality."
Colossians 3: 22-25

Serving humanism or Serving our human designer? A careful place to think and decide where we are.
3 Big Selfies: Self-serving resumes, Self-honoring charitable giving and Self Righteousness. We see such "Big Selfies" in churchiosities atrocities and outside of church in secular humanistic efforts daily.

SELF MOTIVATED or GOD GUIDED? God and Self can't be FIRST. There's only one FIRST.
Boy, have we gotten it all wrong over recent decades! The "me first"people, the "selfie" people, the self-motivated, "charity do gooder-donors", the "personal resume builders", the unrighteous "self-righteous", the "prayerless, faithless, JUDGES of all", the "blackhearted condemners" of self and all others, the "churchiosity atrocities" where church people hurt the church goers and the "offended-angered-bitter" people who flee from church going on Sunday mornings. We are a flock of sheep enclosed by One Father, in His pasture, to learn to trust and obey, as long as we have breath. Surely there are many more ways we avoid putting God first. Selfishly, we volunteer to try and achieve some fleshly desire or goal that appeals to us, and then try to give God credit for it, never once asking Him in prayer if this "achievement" was from and for Him, or from and for reducing us to selfish sinning.

My Daily Heart Prayer:
My pure heart's desire to is to please Your heart, be found in Your heart, to be washed from my sin, repentant, grace filled and to be found forgiving in nature with boundless hope for tomorrow, by Your own: impartial, unconditional love for all, all the while, KEEPING YOU FIRST. So help me God! Amen.

God, please form and inform my prayers on this always. The key move is to serve YOU first and only. That I be kept from becoming self-serving. Keep me sincere, pure hearted, without judgmentalness and joyously lifted up. Let me escape from every oppressive weapon. Let me influence with Your goodness and become deaf to all intimidations. Cause me to recognize the insecurity in others standing securely by faith in Your promises, becoming deaf to the boasts, claims and offensive behaviors of others. Help me do Jesus, put on the new man, and never revert to donning the old clunky one. I need You for all of this all the time. Thank You for never leaving me friendless, by our Indwelling Friend, Your Holy Spirit Himself who never leaves or forsakes each believer. So grateful. Am praying peace for Israel, mercy and deliverance for the persecuted church and for personal, effective evangelism touches on every life Your Spirit puts in everyone of my days. Thank You in the matchless name of Jesus. Amen.
