Moses let the children of Israel know in Deuteronomy 9:4 that the people who dwell in the Promised Land were being driven out by God because of their wickedness and not because of Israel's righteousness. Moses says to Israel, "Speak not thou in thine heart, after that the Lord thy God hath cast them out from before thee, saying, For my righteousness the Lord hath brought me into possess this land: but for the wickedness of these nations the Lord doth drive them out from before thee."
Maybe in reading Moses' words you will take a closer look inward at yourself as well as a closer look outward. Your look inward to possibly steer from self-righteousness. Your look outward to see God's work in your life.
