I Don’t Care What People Think - Day 1 of 5

Day 1: The Trap of Approval

Five-day devotional based on the message, "I Don't Care What People Think" by Discipleship Pastor Ryan Akers on June 8, 2025. Click here to watch the video.

Devotional
In our quest for acceptance, we often fall into the trap of seeking approval from others rather than focusing on pleasing God. This longing for human approval can lead us to compromise our values, become overly sensitive, and hesitate to share our faith. As believers, we must recognize that living for people's approval can prevent us from confidently walking in God's purpose for us. By shifting our focus from the opinions of others to the approval of God, we can live a life that honors Him and aligns with His desires.

Bible Verse
"Fearing people is a dangerous trap, but trusting the Lord means safety."
— Proverbs 29:25

Reflection Question
Where in your life do you find yourself seeking approval from others rather than focusing on pleasing God?

Sermon Quote

"You can’t walk confidently in God’s purpose for you if you're constantly worried about people’s opinions of you."

Prayer
Heavenly Father, help me to recognize the traps of seeking approval from others. Guide me to trust in You and find safety in Your love and acceptance. Amen.
