[The Glory Unveiled]
See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the elemental spiritual forces of this world rather than on Christ. ( Colossians 2:8 )
Today, the world seems to have too many teachers and guides. Religion has entered the hall of philosophy so that it is difficult to tell the difference between the two. Spirituality is estranged from the consciousness and association of many. Human traditions and customs birthed from many years of experience and interactions with the world systems has eaten into our human fiber. So deep that the gospel of Jesus sounds strange and alien to the heart of many. Our anchor scripture begins thus, “see to it” to mean that we should consciously guard our hearts from deviating into what we are cautioned against. The word of God helps us to safeguard our hearts against the captivity of human philosophy and deception. We need to study the word of God daily. To the believer, it’s a must, if we would look different from the world. Let us study to show ourselves approved.
Prayer_Bead: Lord of all hearts, spirit teacher, teach our hearts to know your truth and cling to it. Deliver us from the philosophy of men, incline our hearts to your truth and your ways.
