Ways to follow
In Romans 10:9, the Bible says if you confess the Lord Jesus with your mouth and believe in your heart about His resurrection, you’ll be saved. So there are two prerequisites to have before getting born again – a mouth that confesses Jesus we Lord and personal saviour, and a heart that believes in His name.
Don’t get amazed when people give you a turn-off for speaking the gospel of Jesus Christ to them. Except God removed the spiritual blindness the devil has cast on the unbelievers to see the treasure of the gospel, they won’t believe in the message of Christ.
Calling a believer a Christian isn’t wrong. However, the Antiochenes, who called believers this name, saw them live in the ways of God. It takes salvation to become a believer, but maturity to live like Jesus. Pursue a deeper intimacy with God, walk in love and never allow what people call you to override who God says you are in your mind.
You first have to evangelise to the unbeliever before you can win them. But it’s better when you know the benefit of what you’re doing to the kingdom of God.
With or without water baptism, once you believe in Jesus with your heart and have confessed His Lordship over your life, your salvation is secure.
Instead of going through life drained with issues, start thinking about God’s promises for your life. In fact, be so mindful of them that the devil will know you have little to no time to spare thinking about his lies. The Lord will shield you from all forms of harm as you step out to fulfil your divine mandate.
If you’re a ministry leader reading this, please insist on leading the church to evangelise to people. If you’re a Christian belonging to a church, never forget to preach Jesus to people who come around you or who you encounter in life. Enough of beating around the gospel. Hell must be depopulated. Play your part!
A purpose-driven way of living makes you live a very tight life. You won’t involve yourself in just anything that comes your way. No! God shows you what to do each day and teaches you how to be committed to the vision.
Not everyone will value the principles of God you cherish so much. Walk in wisdom towards unbelievers. Save yourself some time by not spending it with people who distract you from God’s call.
Experiencing abundance in life is not in relocating to another country, getting a high-paying job or marrying a wealthy spouse. It’s in Jesus Christ. Only Him has what it takes to satisfy your soul. Come to Him today!
We all need to protect one another and not tarnish the image of one another. Everyone has weaknesses, and sometimes, to deal with them, going through suffering is necessary.
God chose you in Christ before the foundation of this world to be holy and blameless before Him in love. But on top of that, He predestined you to be adopted as His child through Jesus Christ. So when Jesus died and was resurrected, He paved the way for you to get closer to God.
