Mark 7:6 – Honoring God With My Heart

Join us in the Project 345 reading plan as we read through the New Testament.

(S)cripture – Mark 7:6 “And he (Jesus) said to them (religious leaders – Pharisees), ‘Well did Isaiah (29:13) prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written, “This people honors me with their lips, but their heart is far from me…”’”

(0)bservation – Hypocrites honor God with their mouth and not their heart.  God is after my heart.

(A)pplication – I must focus on my heart and not my mouth.  If I am not walking with God inside, then my worship on the outside is vain (v. 7).

(P)rayer – “Lord, forgive the hypocrisy in my life.  Show me where I talk the talk and don’t walk the walk.  Draw my heart to yours.”
