Why should the saved person ever seek “great things for thyself” in a world that is headed toward destruction? Yet, sad to say, some of God’s people do seek “great things.” Let us keep close in our hearts that “the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth forever.” The world will give us its friendship at a price, but “know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? Whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.” The world will give us its fame, for a price. But if you seek it, do so remembering that “all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away: but the word of the Lord endureth forever.” And the world offers its fortune, but “wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? For riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven.” So why “seekest thou great things for thyself” in this world that despises and rejects our Savior? Rather, “be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect will of God.”
Great in the world that knew Him not?
Well-known where His name is denied?
Rather let me bear His reproach,
For nothing on earth shall abide.
