When I have the faintest hint of the fear of man, of what people will say or the price I will pay for doing such and such, I am going to be diving into unbelief. I realize that I am not a Pharisee, however it is a principle that God showed me. Consideration of man before God is a trap that sends you towards unbelief. First you are really trusting man more than God for the outcome, and you certainly are not fearing God which produces faith. Whatever consideration of man I have must be what God would have as well – my heart and His heart have to line up. I really want to stretch and believe for things that I have never seen before and God has showed me today one of the keys to getting there. Don’t be a people pleaser, be a God pleaser.
