Dear Christian, you must be patient with people, especially when working with them. You must understand that every single individual is different on the face of this earth. As such, navigating relationships with others is a crucial thing to master.
God’s supervisory system is so good that He doesn’t need anybody to check what each of His children is doing. When you work hard for Him, He sees it and rewards you based on His preferences. And if you’re lazy, you cannot bypass His watchful eyes.
Do you acknowledge your shepherd in the Lord, or you don’t? When did you last surprise your pastor with a special gift he never saw coming? If you’ve not done that yet, you aren’t practising 1 Thessalonians 5:12 in your life, which is bad.
You are God’s child, so you are a child of the light. And since there is no darkness in God, walking in God’s light means living a holy life devoid of any trace of evil, even in the heart.
The Bible says in 1 Thessalonians 4:7 that God did not call us to be impure. But what? To live a holy life. That’s a spiritual demand on each child of God’s life, including you.
One of the most profound questions in ministry, primarily targeted to young and upcoming ministers, is, “Did God call you”? I am writing this article to help anybody battling with the surety of his calling to ministry, and I hope you’ll get your answers after reading it.
Instead of exploiting people, why don’t you help them? Speak unto their capacity. Minister the Word of Christ powerfully to them. Build each other up rather than tearing them down. God’s gifts in you are for the benefit of others, not for their exploitation.
Because it’s written clearly in scripture that the world lies in wickedness (see 1 John 5:19), I can assure you that things won’t get better with immorality. It will get worse. So don’t look to the world for hope! Anchor your faith in Christ!
There is a purpose God created you to live for. And one of them is to live to express Jesus in every area of your life. You may not know how important this is, but I tell you, it is very essential. If every area of your life reflects Christ, think about how your life will be to the world. Devoid of any evil. Right?
The world will never be at a standstill. Things will keep moving, and you might get busier with time. Don’t be in a rush; live grateful unto God.
If you think the problems in your life will ever cease before you enjoy peace, you’re on an infinite wait period. Don’t do that! Enjoy God’s peace today, always being conscious of the truth that today is the day the Lord has made.
Don’t be selfish, dear one. Do not think your intercession is useless. It is very much needed in the body of Christ. You may never know how your little prayer for that believer you don’t know will provoke heaven to step up for his case. People are going through very tough situations in this world. Pray for them!
