So it's like, he's like, as a Christian, you should know this. If you're a true follower of me, if I am lord over your life, then I shouldn't have to command you to do this. It's an expectation, right?" - Christian Edwards "And then it really just goes on. It's like, hey, don't be babbling like the pagans, where they're big words, many words. And I love this. It says, do not be like them. For the father knows what you need before you ask him. He already knows what we need, but we're still instructed to ask." -Rylee Meek"But Jesus is addressing here the danger, and it is a real danger that you could cultivate an image of righteousness by your giving. But your motive is wrong, right? That's pretty much the motive is kind of the key word in all this, where Jesus is really examining what our motive is in all that we do, when we give, when we pray, when we fast, but especially when we give." - Christian Edwards "It's almost like I think of anything that we do, our pride and our ego just wells up and we want to tell others about it. I did this, and it makes us look good. And it's almost like, dude, I don't want to tell anybody about anything that we're giving because I want to be rewarded from God, not from man." -Rylee Meek "If you think about it with children, I mean, Ellie's getting to that age where Ellie is absolutely the exception to the rule. So you may never deal with typical teenage stuff with Ellie. Oh, please, God. But if she know. Comes home from school one day and is frustrated and angry or whatever, a lot of times you could get to the root of it, the source of it. It's like what she's showing on the outside or the exterior is because of some sort of hurt. There was some sort of conflict, something that's just weighing on her mind that she's having a hard time processing because she's young, that sort of thing. A lot of times, just having those conversations in the natural and getting those things out, you could come to resolution. They could be remedied. So. imagine getting all that out to God in prayer. If we could have some sort of remedy as a natural father. Imagine God in heaven." - Christian Edwards "And the things of this world slowly start to just fade away. Because the only thing that really truly matters is your relationship. You're being in alignment. And when I think of righteousness, I just always think of being in right alignment. Like when we're seeking righteousness, it's being in right alignment with our creator." -Rylee Meek Join the King’s CouncilCommunity: https://joinkingscouncil.com/Follow King’s Council: https://www.instagram.com/kingscouncilcommunity/Follow Rylee: https://www.instagram.com/theryleemeek/Follow Christian: https://www.instagram.com/christian_edwards01/Subscribe to YouTube page: https://www.youtube.com/@KingsCouncilCoachingWednesday morning Bible Study: https://www.kingscouncilbiblestudy.comGet your copy of “The Kingdom Entrepreneur: The 7-Day Blueprint” here: https://www.amazon.com/Kingdom-Entrepreneur-Blueprint-Proven-Template/dp/B0BHY53H23
