Prayer based on John 5:44. Themes: Glory, Belief, Seeking God’s Glory.

Dear God, please help me to believe in you and seek your glory above all else. May I not be swayed by the opinions and praise of others, but instead focus on pleasing you and receiving the glory that comes from you alone. Give me the strength and courage to resist the temptation of seeking validation from others and instead seek your approval. Thank you for your love and grace. Amen.

Verse: How can you believe, who receive glory from one another, and you don’t seek the glory that comes from the only God?
John 5:44

This is a Command. The verse commands the reader to seek the glory that comes from the only God rather than seeking glory from one another.
