PRAISE & WORSHIP

MFM Devotional 15 May 2026 | MESSAGE

In our devotional today, we will look at the lifestyle of the Pharisees as it concerns our topic, “The Danger of Taking God’s Glory.” The Pharisees were religious leaders who sought to be honoured and praised by others for their outward acts of righteousness. They loved the attention and recognition they received from men, seeking glory for themselves rather than directing it to God, which was the main reason they vehemently opposed the doctrines of our Lord Jesus.

The Pharisees were highly respected religious leaders in Israel, and their outward displays of righteousness were often for show. Jesus criticised them for their hypocrisy performing religious duties to be seen by men, not out of genuine love for God. They loved being honoured by others, enjoying the best seats in synagogues and the praises of men. They loved the attention and recognition they received from men, seeking glory for themselves rather than directing it to God.

Our Lord, Jesus Christ, was against their desire for approval from people over God because the Pharisees were more concerned with the recognition they received than with glorifying God through their actions. Jesus rebuked them for seeking self-glory instead of humility and service. True righteousness is about serving God and others without the need for recognition. We must examine our motives.

Are we doing good works for the praise of others, or are we motivated by a desire to honour God? Jesus calls us to be humble, to serve without seeking the approval of men but God’s approval. And again, the Pharisees were known for their hypocrisy. They pretended to be serving God while in actual sense they were seeking personal glory. This, the Lord found quite disgusting and unbecoming of those who claim to be serving God.
