(Jesus continued) “On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and cast out demons in Your name, and do many mighty works in Your name?’ And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you evildoers.’”
Matthew 7:22, 23
Lord, You told us in the verse before this one that those that do the will of Your Father are the ones that will go to heaven. These men were saying they were doing things in Your name to bring glory to themselves. That is why You called them evildoers.
Thank You Lord that as we listen to You we are guided to do Your will.
Thank You that we know it is not ‘all about us’ but all about doing Your will.
Thank You Lord for giving us the knowledge and wisdom we need to follow You.
Oh what a wonderful gift that is.
Thank You Lord.
