The Gospels in 30

DAY 2 OF 30

Day 2

Matthew 4-6

Take a look at the following verses and compare them. 

“In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.” Matthew 5:16 ESV
“Beware of practicing your righteousness before other people in order to be seen by them, for then you will have no reward from your Father who is in heaven.” Matthew 6:1 ESV

These commands, at first, can seem contrary. What’s the difference? In the first instance, we let our light shine (through our good works) to proclaim His glory to a lost and dying world. The intent of the heart should be to bring attention to His name alone. In the latter, we abstain from bringing glory to ourselves by practicing spiritual disciplines. 

In whatever you do today, remember that your life was designed to bring God glory.

About this Plan

The Gospels in 30

During this plan, you'll read the entirety of the Gospels in just 30 days. Are you up for the challenge? Doing so will require 2-4 chapters of Bible reading each day, along with a deep dive devotion highlighting a couple verses from each day's reading. We hope you enjoy this plan written by Cody Griggs, missionary to Ecuador.
