साल्न्हाका चात्या 5:29

If Satan can’t convince you to put your faith in him or in yourself, he will convince you to put your faith in others. When we decide to trust people over God, it can lead us down a path of destruction. Anytime our faith is divided between God and man, we enter troubled waters. In this 3-day Reading Plan, we’ll discuss King Solomon’s fall from faithful servant to people-pleasing monarch.

The key to greatness in Christ is to have total reliance on Him. As you surrender fully to His perfect will to serve His purpose and His people, God will bestow favor upon your life. As Christians, our highest aspiration should be to follow Jesus’ example of being a servant to all, carrying the attitude of humility. At the same time, the Bible is clear that our calling is to "obey God rather than men" (Acts 5:29). So when it comes to man, have an attitude of humility; but when it comes to God, let your attitude be one of total obedience!

In 50 carefully selected passages from the Bible, you will discover the essential question Paul asked the Lord while he was traveling to Damascus: "What shall I do, Lord?" Have you ever asked yourself, What difference am I making with my life? On some level, we all struggle to find our own answer to that fundamental question. The search for significance is the underlying motivation for virtually all human activity.
