Lot only looked for what he liked, and only saw what would profit him. Lot didn’t ask himself about what pleased God, what might be was useful for God, and what God would bless.
Genesis 13:11 Then Lot chose for himself all the plain of Jordan, and Lot journeyed east. And they separated from each other.
We see God noting that Lot ‘chose for himself all’. He took whatever was best for his agenda for life. The Lord didn’t even figure into that decision. No thought of the long-term effect of that choice. No seeking what God might want him to do. No it was all based on what was best for himself; and with that choice he showed that Lot was living for Lot.
Lot seems to have been motivated by what John calls the “lust of the eyes”. He lived for what he could see instead of what he could not see.
Abraham, who lived for the Lord, never built anything but altars, never bought any land except a plot to bury his beloved wife, and never lived in anything but a tent.
