Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess. Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first that which is within the cup and platter, that the outside of them may be clean also.”
Matthew 23: 25-26 KJV
Do not disregard this verse as being spoken to Pharisees!! Do we who profess to Bertie followers of Christ, appear to be clean on the outside?? Let us examine today way lies inside of us! What defines our thoughts? What defines our attitude to do godly things? Is it for fame or name? Is it expecting something in return from Christ? Are we self seeking??
Take some moments to think about what we are and let's ask God to forgive for the times we seemed clean on the outside whilst still carrying all the dirt inside? Shall we take time to confess all uncleanliness that is hidden to the outside world? If we are truly to be called His we need to be clean inside and out!
Father God forgive me for all my mistakes, m make me clean like you expect!
