Man of God, servant of God, the work of the ministry isn’t only meant to profit others at your expense. You’re also included in God’s world of impact created just for your ministry. Use that privilege. Listen to the Word you preach to others and live by the sound doctrine you teach
If we’d stop holding on to the minor differences amongst ourselves and help impactful ministers spread sound Biblical doctrine in this world, we can reach more people for Christ in seconds.
Make a conscious decision to end the comparison between writing and physical presence ministrations of a man of God. God has you, and He wants you to be ministered unto in as many ways as possible. Don’t trivialize any means He uses to teach you the Word.
No matter how many Christians are in this dark world, failure to let the Christ in us, who’s the light of the world, shine unto people, won’t make us influence them for Each believer has two intentional actions to do in order to witness Christ, and that is (1) “arise” and (2) “shine.”
Don’t deceive yourself by making yourself available in spiritual gatherings, yet having your mind too made up to listen and practice the Word of God preached. Apply what you learn from the Word.
Through your fellowship with Jesus and consciousness that He’s always with you, you will be empowered to spread the net of kingdom influence in this dark world.
The main reason why Christians shouldn’t listen to secular music is that it doesn’t originate from God. Anybody who produces it, not filled with the Holy Spirit, is being used by the enemy to corrupt the hearts and minds of people.
Honor men of God by supporting them both financially (if you’re able) and spiritually (in your prayers). Don’t be too focused on responding to his labour while neglecting the act of sowing into his life.
Doctrine is contagious. You can teach others what you know in several ways. But not every knowledge can be transferred to just any person.
Endure hardship as you serve. However, concentrate on the mission of Christ saving and discipling this wicked world by being mission-driven in your actions and decisions.
As good as ideas may be, each one has to pass through the lens of the Spirit before it can be accepted, pursued, planned, and executed.
To move forward in almost everything you do, one principle to adopt in your life is to intentionally forget what’s behind as you reach on to what’s ahead.
