You Are the Temple of the Living God
In Christ, Jesus is your Lord. So you are under His authority. You must live like Him. But the good news is that He knows you cannot do that on your own strength. So what? He gives you the grace to live like Him.
Be Renewed in Your Inner Man
No matter what work you do, you must insist on spending time with the Lord regularly. When you do that, it’ll help you to be renewed in your inner man each day. As a matter of fact, it enables you to work more effectively than any ordinary unbelieving worker.
Fix Your Eyes on the Unseen
It is possible to live joyfully amidst the chaos in your life. Why? Because God can make you fix your eyes on the unseen promises He has for you, including your reward in heaven.
Follow the Way of Love
To love as Jesus did, you must live like Him, and that takes grace to do that. You will be offended, gossiped about, and even conspired with by the very people you may never suspect. But in all these things, whether you hear of the evil talk of men or not, love them.
Everything in the Earth Belongs to God
God is the creator of the Earth. So, everything in it belongs to Him, whether man likes it or not. Therefore, no matter how rich you are or will ever become, you are a steward of those possessions, not the owner.
Not Everything Is Beneficial to Do as a Believer
Serve one another in love. Help those God tells you to help, and don’t feel guilty to walk away from things that are of no benefit to your life.
Flee from Idolatry
Today, idolatry is about serving anything at all that claims your allegiance, including your phone. Idolatry is terrible, and God wants you to flee from it. But in what way?
God Supplies a Way Out of Every Temptation
You can always triumph against the enemy, who’s the one behind such thoughts. But you must understand your spiritual authority in Christ so you can use it to cast down every imagination that stands up against the cause of Christ in your life.
Run in Such a Way as to Get the Prize
Your faith journey is like a race but with no competition with others. Why? Because each person’s destiny is different. That means there’s no need to compare your life to another person in Christ. But in this race, finishing strong is very necessary.
Those Who Preach the Gospel Should Live Off the Gospel
Those who preach the gospel should live off the gospel. It is Biblical for every preacher to be paid by the church, although some don’t take it. Do you know why? Because some sacrifice their lives just to push the gospel forward. However, it is not wrong if a preacher earns a substantial salary from the church.
Sacrifice to Push the Gospel Forward
Ministry isn’t for lazy people. You must make many sacrifices to keep God’s work moving forward, including financial ones. The higher the level, the higher the price to pay. Be encouraged.
Suffering for Christ Is Part of Your Faith Journey
Did you know that suffering for Christ is part of your faith journey? Telling believers that their faith journey isn’t always full of bliss is wise, so that they’ll not have an imbalanced view of their walk in Christ.
