A Jew by Inward Witness

Since time immemorial, Jews have been classified as God’s people who carry His oracles. And this hasn’t changed. Jews are still God’s people. But today, the “Jews,” who are God’s children, are no longer physical descendants of Abraham, although He still loves them and cares about them. The current Jews of God are those who are born again in Christ. So, if you are a Christian, then you are a jew by inward witness. That’s it.

Teach Yourself as You Teach Others

Dear preacher, don’t rush to get some information from the Bible just to preach to people. Take your time to study the Word. Teach yourself as you teach others. Instill self-discipline in your walk with God. Beat your body so you don’t become a castaway of the very things you preach to others.

Guard the Word You Have Heard

Your time spent in church is never enough to let the sound doctrine you hear from the pulpit settle in your spirit. You must read and study the Bible, revise your notes, listen to sermon podcasts, pray, fast and do all other spiritual exercises in Christ with intentionality. That is how to force God’s Word to settle in your spirit.

Lord, Teach Us to Number Our Days

When David asked God to teach us to number our days, he was referring to God helping us to note how prophetic our daily activities contribute to fulfilling the divine prophecies written in God’s mind concerning our lives. So, there should not be any ordinary day in your life where you cannot trace any good particular thing you did to ensure God’s prophecies are in manifestation.

Speak the Truth in Love

Dear married one, speak the truth in love to your spouse to save your marriage. Dear employee going through tough times because your boss isn’t treating you or others well, speak the truth in love to him without being afraid. If you have the power, speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves. There are many people suffering without having a voice. Use your position of influence to help them.

Keep the Unity of the Spirit

Paul is entreating us in Ephesians 4:3 that, as believers, we can dwell together in spiritual harmony by fostering peace among ourselves. But why did he say that? Because he knew that relationships are one of the most complex areas of life in this world.

A Statement of Humility

When I read Ephesians 3:8, I felt a great depth of humility in Paul’s statement. He didn’t say, “I was the least of all the saints.” No. He said, “…who am less than the least of all the saints …”. That means despite all the exploits he has wrought on the face of this Earth for the sake of Christ, he still counted himself as the least of the saints. What a statement of humility. Can you, as a preacher, say this about yourself?

Jesus Is Your Peace

By reason of Jesus’ atonement for the sin of the world, He has taken away that which separated man from God, paving an accessible way for anybody to come closer to God without guilt or condemnation. That was even signalled when the veil in the Jewish temple between the holies and the most holy place was torn into two (see Matthew 27:51).

It Is by Grace You Have Been Saved

Salvation, the most precious gift God will ever give to anybody who is an unbeliever, cost Jesus’ life. Though it is a free gift from God, it isn’t cheap because the Son of man died for us when we were unworthy. No believer, including you and I, is ever qualified to get salvation from God. That is why the Bible says it is by grace we have been saved. Think about that!
