JOHN 7:24 24 Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.
Quickly making a decision based on appearance frequently succeeds, but not always. And exceptions can actually cost you.
The world instills in us the notion that appearances can be deceiving. But neither God nor we should judge people based solely on their appearance.
This won't mead we should let our appearance be a way to decieve others . Christians must have a refreshing and good outside outlook as well . One should not just see us and judge us by our appearance as bad . Modest living is admonished .
1 SAMUEL 16:7 7 But the Lord said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the Lord seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the Lord looketh on the heart.
We lack the necessary knowledge to assess people because we are unaware of their motivations. God is the only one who can. It's hard for us to see what makes others happy or what keep them moving on except we get closer to them.
Let's not stereotype on seeing people.
You shouldn't always judge a book by its cover, as they say.
LUKE 16:15 15 And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.
No matter how someone looks, we should always treat them with respect since God created and adores them.
SAY THIS: Lord, help me to avoid judging others based just on looks.
Looks may be deceptive, looks may lead me to judge wrongly.
