Hebrews 13:9 Do not be carried away by all kinds of strange teachings, for it is good for the heart to be strengthened by grace and not by foods of no value to those devoted to them.
This verse encourages you not to drift into strange teachings. This refers to false teachings, legalism, or religious systems that pull people away from the truth of the gospel. Your life as a Christian is sustained and strengthened by God’s grace, not by religious performance, rituals, or external rules.
People are often quick to create burdens, man-made rules, or spiritual trends that they want others to follow. Be careful not to be led astray by these things. Stay rooted in the gospel and focused on Jesus Christ.
Fill yourself with God’s Word and learn to abide in Christ daily. Let your heart be strengthened by His grace and place your trust in Him alone. ~ Jeff M Newman

Observe Jesus’ Commands
Worship Jesus sacrificially.
Matthew 26:6-13 While Jesus was in Bethany in the home of Simon the Leper, 7 a woman came to Him with an alabaster jar of expensive perfume, which she poured on His head as He reclined at the table. 8 When the disciples saw this, they were indignant and asked, “Why this waste? 9 This perfume could have been sold at a high price, and the money given to the poor.” 10 Aware of this, Jesus asked, “Why are you bothering this woman? She has done a beautiful deed to Me. 11 The poor you will always have with you, but you will not always have Me. 12 By pouring this perfume on Me, she has prepared My body for burial. 13 Truly I tell you, wherever this gospel is preached in all the world, what she has done will also be told in memory of her.” (Mark 14:3-9, Luke 7:44-47, John 12:7)
