Watch Yourself, Oh Man of God
As much as you strive to be the light God has called you to be, be careful when handling the weak and fallen ones in the faith that come to you.

Your soul needs purification. But it’s the reception of the Word that will do that. And when your soul is purified, it’ll reflect in your physical way of life.
Delay your responses to people’s talks. Have a receiving mindset because that will give you ample time to judge situations carefully, even before speaking out your verdict.
God is good. And He will never change. He’s the Father of heavenly lights. And as such, no darkness can ever be traced to Him. Therefore, learn to receive His gracious provision for your life with a heart of gratitude and thanksgiving.
God lives in us by His Spirit (see 1 John 4:4). So even though temptations come to us, the God in us isn’t responsible for it.
Don’t just love those who love you. Balance the beneficiaries of those who receive God’s love from you. Add everyone to it, including the enemies you know nothing about.
As Jesus taught, hide your generous deeds. Give from a willing heart, knowing that the Lord will reward you. Publicity will fade with time.
Make it a heart desire to always walk with more than enough mindset. Carry more than you’ll spend on you each day. So that when you get an opportunity to give to the one who needs something you have, you’ll not have much.
Become a student of the Word and a living epistle of it. Divine knowledge will abound in your walk with God, and you’ll find it easy to run checks on your life by spiritual discernment between good and evil.
Daniel, amongst all the 123 officials King Darius chose, distinguished himself among the satraps by his exceptional qualities. He was so pure that they found nothing against him. Can that be said of you, especially at your workplace or home, dear believer?
If you choose to eat like the worldly people eat, you’ll end up growing to become like them. There’s a different kind of food for the child of God. It’s the Word of God. Keep feeding on it.
Today, many people remember Daniel by name, but not Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah. Numerous believers call the latter three by the new names they gave them: Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego. They allowed Babylon to rename them, and that affected their maximum exploits they’d have done for the Lord in that kingdom. Don’t allow the world to rename you.
