Caesar’s or God’s
Scripture: Luke 20: 25 “Caesar’s,” they replied. He said to them, “Then give to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.”
Observation: To often I give to Caesar what is God’s. The time I spend worrying and thinking of the things of this world should be devoted to God. I have responsibilities in this world to work and love others, but if I’m not doing it for God’s glory I’m not doing it for the right reason. Caesar (this world) should have my respect, courtesy, obeying laws, only because God tells me so in His word.
Application: Doing everything in God’s name. My obedience in this world should reflect God’s love in my life. I shouldn’t be obedient because I’m afraid of punishment, but because I would be disobedient to God.
Prayer: My Lord this whole life is yours, use it to honor you.
