Dare not
SonLight Daily Devotional Daily Devotional for July 28

2 Corinthians 10:12 "For we dare not make ourselves of the number, or compare ourselves with some that commend themselves: but they measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise."

Are you one that has a measuring line out to measure someone else's spiritual walk?
Have you a set of rules to go by to check and see if this person meets your spiritual requirements before you have fellowship with him or her?
Do you look at what that person has accomplished before you give your right hand of fellowship? God has chosen the foolish, and Christ Jesus has chosen the fishermen to be His personal messengers to the lost and dying world.
Are you one that chooses the big and fancy, and forgets the small and unnoticed? Has this been your brand of Christianity as you walk through life?
Are you one that only prays for the important people daily? These are all hard questions that have been asked, but in this age very true questions.
Are you one that writes books on how successful you have been in prayer for others? Matthew 6:5-6

We write these Daily Devotionals to build others up; not to wound or hurt, for we have no idea about your personal Christian walk. If the Holy Spirit convicts you, please just simply repent 1 John 1:9 and thank God that He got your attention. All is said and done in the Spirit of the Lord in unconditional love.

Bible References (KJV)

Matthew 6:5-6 "And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly."
