Day 34: Beware of Religion
Prepare by inviting the Holy Spirit to help you, and focus on your desire to follow Jesus.
Read the passage of scripture: Matthew 16:6-12.
Pharisees were religious rulers and the word “Pharisee” literally means “separated ones”. They refused to have dealings with the common people, because they were separated to God. They wanted to control what was taught and Jesus called them out as religious frauds who loved money. Religion will oppose grace, demand sacrifice to achieve status with God and sow seeds of discontent.
Meditate on the words of Jesus in the key verse: Matthew 16:6.
Ask God:
- What do you want to say to me about this verse?
- What are you asking me to say “yes” to?
- Share your thoughts with someone.

About this Plan
“Follow Me”. At the beginning of his ministry Jesus invited a few unlikely and unqualified people to change the course of their normal lives and embrace a new way of living. Whether you realise it or not, it is an undeniable fact that these people have altered the course of human history. Following Jesus is a simple invitation and a lifetime pursuit and it is something that we are all invited to do. It is the urgent task of every Christian.
