2 Chronicles 35:1-27; Daniel 2:24-49; 1 John 5:1-21

For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. Ephesians 2:8-9

As sinners we cannot work for salvation, but once saved, our salvation works. Regarding our good works, they are meant to glorify the Lord, not you or me. Are you a servant or a celebrity? You and I must decide whether we will magnify the Lord or promote self. God is glorified when people see the Saviour and not the servant. —W. Ross Rainey

May His beauty rest upon me,
As I seek the lost to win,
And may they forget the channel,
Seeing only Him. —Kate B. Wilkinson
