Today, fame and success seem to be measured by how many people follow you or view your social media posts. But fame is not the true measure of success, and it is very deceptive. Christians are not supposed to seek fame and success, we are supposed to be about being righteous. This is what the LORD commands us to do. Righteousness means to be right with God. Fame has to do with being known, with having widespread reputation, especially of a good, positive character, and public importance. Having a good reputation is, of course, important for a Christian, but we need to care more about what God thinks of us, than what people think of us. Our first goal is to be right with God. The LORD must be the first of our
priorities in everything. Then, if fame comes, we know how to handle it. Everything comes back to seeking Jesus Christ first. The more we live, the more we move our strength toward doing the things the LORD desires us to do. It’s about Him, not us!

What happens when we do not pursue these ...

Presence of God; Psalms 85-89
A lot of people claim to believe in God, or give God credit for working in their lives, but which God are they speaking of? Let’s not trick ourselves into following something or someone who is not really God! It’s important to name Him, the God of creation, the God of the Bible, Jesus Christ! Fro...
