“He set himself to seek God in the days of Zechariah, who instructed him in the fear of God, and as long as he sought the Lord, God made him prosper.”
“But when he was strong, he grew proud, to his destruction. For he was unfaithful to the Lord his God and entered the temple of the Lord to burn incense on the altar of incense.”
2 Chronicles 26:5,16 ESV
How easy it is to completely change course from following God to being prideful and arrogant. The change is so huge and destructive, yet happens with such small acts and decisions.
Lord, keep me close to You! Allow my drift to be arrested early. Help me to stay close to people who can speak into my life at the first sign of straying from Your ways, and give me the humility to see it clearly!
