The Dangers of Ambition Without God: A Reflection on Mrs. Kamala Harris’s Agenda
The pursuit of success is not inherently wrong, but ambition
disconnected from God risks becoming self-centered. For example, Harris’s
support of abortion rights directly contradicts the biblical commandment to
honor the sanctity of life. In Psalm 139:13-16, God intricately forms life in
the womb, bestowing value upon it from conception. Policies that support
terminating unborn lives disregard this divine significance and place human
desires above God’s will.
Mrs. Harris’s stance on gender ideology further promotes an
ambition that contradicts God’s design. Genesis 1:27 states that God created
humans “male and female.” Advocacy for self-identification over God’s creation
disregards the intentionality of how He made each individual. Ambition without
considering God’s commands leads society away from His truth.
The Call to Godly Ambition:
Jesus teaches, “Seek first the kingdom of God and His
righteousness” (Matthew 6:33). This call challenges any agenda that elevates
personal desires over God’s will. An “opportunity economy” is attractive, but
unless it acknowledges God’s values—such as the sanctity of life and the design
of creation—it risks promoting ambitions that conflict with biblical
principles.
Balancing Ambition with Obedience:
Proverbs 16:3 tells us to “Commit your work to the LORD, and
your plans will be established.” True success comes from submitting our
ambitions to God. Christians must critically assess societal goals, including
those promoted by Mrs. Harris, to ensure they honor biblical values. If
ambitions oppose God’s commands, they stray into dangerous territory, making
human desires the measure of what is right.
The Consequences of Ambition Without God:
When society elevates ambition without God, it creates a
culture that prioritizes personal desires over divine wisdom. Policies that
support abortion or promote gender identity ideologies reflect an ambition to
appease societal trends, not uphold biblical values. This path leads to moral
decline as human aspirations replace God’s truth.
Conclusion
Ambition can inspire positive change, but it must be rooted
in God’s will. Mrs. Harris’s focus on “the ambitions of the American people”
sounds appealing, but without grounding it in God’s commands, it becomes an
empty promise. True opportunity is found in living a life aligned with God’s
will. Christians must uphold biblical values, advocate for the sanctity of
life, and honor God’s creation, modeling an ambition that seeks to glorify God,
not merely appease human desires.
