The Unrighteous are and Abomination

Scripture Deuteronomy 25:16 For all who do such things, all who behave unrighteously, are an abomination to the LORD your God.

Observation: Unrighteous is doing the wrong thing with the wrong attitude. Self-centerness is at the center of acting unrighteous because all we want is what we want and we don’t think of the need of others or what God wants of us. The world is unrighteous and encourages us to be the same. Commercials entice us to get what we want and be the person we want to be without consideration of what God desires us to be. This world is an abomination to the Lord and it is harder for a Christian to be righteous, but we must.

Application: Think before I act to make sure it honors God. To rid myself of the anger within me and the desire to always be right in my mind no matter who it hurts. To ask myself if what I’m about to do is righteous and honoring before God and if it isn’t not to do it, but find a way to glorify God in all that I do.

Prayer: Dear Lord you know my heart, you know me better than anyone, you’re my creator. I need your strength and wisdom to make the right decisions that will lead my on a path of righteousness. Build me up to do your will and touch the hearts of others by the man you can make me to be.
