234. Abandon Trust In Your Works
Jeremiah 46-48
For because thou hast trusted in thy works and in thy
treasures, thou shalt also be taken: and Chemosh shall go forth into captivity
with his priests and his princes together.
Jeremiah 48:7
To trust in your works will lead you astray. It puts your
focus on you and what you can do rather than on God and living in his strength.
It can lead to a life of dependency on keeping others happy and keeping
friends. You then start to think only of yourself and how you feel and what you
can do to make yourself feel better and be happy. Will you set aside your pride
and trust in yourself to live a life where God is seen through you and He gets
all the glory for what He does in your life?
