Be or not being Part of the World

Guidance which given by this world is hunger for immediate, short-term results. It cannot see life in the long-term because it looks at life without the perspective of eternal realities. So, if we follow the world, in which we live, but since in the process of gaining it we shall lose our souls, where is the profit? 
By wisdom of this world that men crucified Christ. Same wisdom applies to our lives will crucify afresh the Lord of glory.(Hebrews 6:6) 


When Jesus prayed for his disciples, and those who would believe in him through their witness, he said: 
             Father, I want those you have given to be with me where I   
             am, and to see my glory, the glory you have given me 
             because you loved me before the creation of the world.  
                                                                                      John 17:24


Simply expressed, our Lord recognized that God has a plan for his people ('those you have given me') . Jesus asked that the purpose of his death for us may be fulfilled in us - that we may see the glory and live in his presence. 
To live for the glory of God means to imitate Jesus. It means to become familiar with his inner springs which activated all his behaviour, and put these principles into practice in our own lives. 




If we do not seek his glory, we cannot be walking in the way of his blessing.


If we seek his glory, then we can be sure that we shall discover his light shed on our paths.
