How to Be a Great Christian
Everybody wants to be great, but few know how to be great. Knowing how to be a great Christian will be beneficial to you.
Greater Works
Jesus gave out the single requirement that any Christian who wants to do greater works must meet, which is this: believe in him.
Set an Example
The best form of training a leader can give to his followers is to set an example by practising what’s he teaches. People remember what you model more than what you say.
Count the Cost
When you count the cost involved in anything you are about to build, your preparation for it becomes better and more explicit.
Change the Trend
You can’t change the past, but you can do something about your future. Choices are more powerful than statistics.
Multiply What God Gives You
Don’t focus on what you don’t have now. Use what you have well and generate a good report of labour and faithfulness before God. When He sees it, He’ll increase your level step by step.
Mark the Perfect Man
Watch how your leader in Christ navigates his life with the Word of God as his lamp and learn from him. You may not be in his team to do this, but you can watch and follow him closely.
Doing Good Works to Others as Christians
Good works are the hallmark of selfless Christians. Don’t be selfish with what God blesses you with. You’re blessed to be a blessing unto people.
Continue Doing Good
To continue doing good works, don’t look for those with needs (because they’ll always be around). Rather, spend time in the presence of the Holy Spirit to be empowered.
Minister Grace unto People
When you decide to speak pleasantly, Proverbs 16:24 says those words become just like a honeycomb with two additional functionalities: sweetness to the soul and health to the bones.
Different Levels of Fruition
There is variation in how much people take God’s Word seriously. Due to this, there’ll always be different levels of fruition amongst Christians. Aim to understand God’s Word you receive well, so that you’ll work with it to bear more fruit.
