Seeking human praise for its own sake is sinful. If you perform righteous deeds in order to receive human recognition, you spoil the gift you could have given to God. You might receive applause here on Earth, but Jesus says you will not receive a reward in heaven.

Matthew 5:16
Jesus Himself said, "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven."

Matthew 6:1
Jesus said, "Beware of practicing your piety before men in order to be seen by them; for then you will have no reward from your Father who is in heaven."

Matthew 6:4
Such a virtuous man can be confident that even if no one on Earth notices his righteous deeds, his heavenly Father sees and will reward him.
