Are you a speaking doer? Or are you hypocritical like Jesus was describing the Leaders of the temple at his time in the Bible reading today? In the text today, Jesus made a clear distinction about the saying of kingdom principles which one must adher to but not to imitate into hell those who speak but their lives are different. He caps up the text by proclaiming woe to those who by their actions are preventing others from entering into the kingdom especially by virtue of their supposed spiritual leadership.  You may be saying that I am not a leader, pastor or envangelist. However as a proclaimed Christian and child of God, there are others who are looking to you as a guiding light of what it looks like to be a practicing Christian. So question for you is: Does your life reflect the dictates of the kingdom? Do you say it but not live it? Or maybe more importantly is: Do you believe the instructions that are in the word of God? Being branded for Christ puts you in a position where the brand owner expects you to live up to the brand due to association.  Be careful to be a true representative of Heaven’s brand in all spheres of life. 

Prayer: Dear Lord, thank you for your faithfulness and mercies always. Lord I come before your throne of grace to obtain mercies for every past act of hypocrisy towards kingdom values. I also receive grace to be an embodiment of kingdom principles through the Holyspirit and the water of your word in Jesus name 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾. ‎
