Human praise, especially when it comes from upper echelons, though both desirable and satisfying to man's natural spirit, must never be exalted over the Will and Word of God, regardless of the cost; even if the cost is being cast out.

John 12:37 Even after Jesus had performed so many signs in their presence, they still would not believe in him.

John 12:42-43 Yet at the same time many even among the leaders believed in him. But because of the Pharisees they would not openly acknowledge their faith for fear they would be put out of the synagogue; 43) for they loved human praise more than praise from God.
Anyone or anything given presidence over God's Word constitutes idolatry: In the same way, is anyone who espouses that which is in opposition to the teachings of Christ, the embodiment of an anti-Christ. Howbeit, we must be careful when interpreting the text. When I left a church, for instance, it was insinuated, that because I had left, I was an antiChrist. I did not leave THE CHURCH; but, as I have stated before, in fleeing sexual immorality, I left that church; I simply moved my membership to a another church. We must be mindful that many, in this technological generation, being surface and soundbite driven, are easily influenced; and even more so when that influence comes from those of high rank, especially in the church.

Have you ever moved your church membership?
Do it God’s way. You may go through a season of drought. BUT GOD (Jesus) promises that the return on that investment is one hundredfold, NOW - in this life: Mark 10:29-31
Ain't God Good?

Thank You LORD

Human praise shall pass away in time but our praise to Jesus for what He has done for us and will do in the future it is worth to try. Praise the Lord wherever you are. Sing to Him a song that pleases His own heart. Glorify His holy name while we have breath. The dead will not praise Him anymore but those who were redeemed by His Blood will never ever forget what He did on Calvary's cross.

Our heavenly Father deserves all praise, all honor and all glory. We are blessed, helped and healed by His mercy and love. Not to me... o Lord, but to You belongs all praise for Your name is glorious as Your name is lifted up all over the earth.
