Who Do You Say I Am?
Derive your identity from God, not what men say about you. That is the most secure way of living.
There’s a Due Season to Reap Our Labour of Good Works
In Galatians 6:9, the Bible urges us to continue doing good to people as Christians without growing weary. But why? Because there’s a due season to reap our labour of good works.
You Are an Heir of God Through Christ
An heir, according to the scriptures in Galatians 4:7, refers to a person who has acquired or obtained the portion allotted to him. So, in essence, if you’re an heir of God through Christ, then it means you have access to everything the Father has through Jesus.
Don’t Underwork Yourself as a Believer
Don’t underwork yourself. In other words, don’t settle for less just because what’s in your hands to do right now is little. Invest in yourself. Pay the price to acquire more divine knowledge, even if your level is insignificant today. So that when it’s God’s due time to lift you, you’ll not be bankrupt of wisdom to sustain you at that level.
You Are Abraham’s Seed
You are Abraham’s seed as a Christian. That means when it comes to blessings, it’s your birthright as God’s child. But if you’re struggling to make ends meet, the problem is not from God, what job you do or even how much you earn. The problem is you – how well vested are you in knowing who God has made you?
Serve with God’s Strength, Not Yours
Dear minister, serve with God’s strength, which He supplies, not yours. Stop depending on your human strategies to do what He has called you to do. Depend on Him.
God Shows Favour to the Humble
Do you want God to consistently show you favour? Then, choose to remain humble. Learn to consciously live a holy life before God no matter where you find yourself.
Be Alert and of Sober Mind
If you give the devil a chance to have a foothold in your life, I tell you that he won’t spare you. That’s why we’re warned in the scripture not to give him that chance (see Ephesians 4:27).
Don’t Entertain Ungodly Thoughts
As a believer, you must understand that we live in an evil age. So, the things you will see when you step out from your home or outside the brethren are most likely to be evil. Sp guard the purity of your mind by submitting it to the teachings of the Word.
Give What Is Valuable to Valuable People
We live in an evil age. So you’ve got to be circumspect in your interactions with people.
You Can’t Overpay the Debt of Love to the Brethren
You can’t overpay the debt of love to the brethren. When Jesus said that we should love one another as His disciples, He didn’t put an expiry date to that command; neither did He add exceptions to it.
Plead Your Case Before God
In the face of life’s circumstances, what do you do? Do you wail and worry like how many people are used to doing, or do you plead your case before God in prayer? The latter should be your hallmark as a believer.
