Prayer based on Luke 11:43. Themes: Pride, Hypocrisy, Humility.

Dear God, please help me to not seek recognition or praise from others. May I not be like the Pharisees who loved the best seats in the synagogues and the greetings in the marketplaces. Instead, may I humbly serve others and seek to please you above all else. Amen.

Verse: Woe to you Pharisees! For you love the best seats in the synagogues and the greetings in the marketplaces.
Luke 11:43

This is a Command. The verse is a warning or rebuke to the Pharisees for their love of attention and status. There is no direct command or promise given to the reader.
