Bad Company Corrupts Good Character
Start filtering the kind of people you’ve allowed in your circle. Distance yourself from evil people and insist on living to please God regardless of what people say against your godly lifestyle.
Protect Your Relationship with Jesus
Protect your relationship with Jesus from all forms of filth. For you are married to Him. And that means whatever you share with Him in secrecy must be guarded with all diligence.
Avoid Engaging Yourself in Quarrels
God hasn’t ordained you to win quarrels, but to impact lives. Live in this consciousness.
The Greatest Commandment in the Law
When you love God with all your heart, soul, and mind, you are showing Him that He is the most important thing in your life. You also set yourself up for a life of peace, joy, and fulfilment.
Flow with the Brethren with One Mind — the Mind of Christ
Pay the price to be around for church despite the circumstances. That’s the only way you’ll not be different from the brethren in Christ overtime.
Give Yourself Wholly to God
Just as a husband and a wife give their bodies to each other, you’re married to Jesus because you’re part of His bride – the Church. So you’re obligated, by the empowerment of the Spirit, to give yourself wholly to God.
Patience Is Necessary If You Want to Judge Issues Correctly
Not everybody is a judge by profession. But each day, there are cases that must be addressed, some spiritually by prayer, others at home and in workplaces. Without wisdom and patience, one can make wrong conclusions about issues and end up hurting hearts.
Esteem Others Better Than You
Enough of self-consumption. Learn both to receive God’s love and give to others also. Esteem others better than you. In that way, you’ll value them and focus less on their weaknesses.
The Golden Rule in Scripture
In Matthew 7:12, Jesus says what I call the golden rule in scripture, which says, “… in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you…”. That means, you ought to be reciprocated in your demands of people’s treatment.
God Is So Mindful of You
God is so mindful of you. What makes you think God has abandoned you? If He gave up Jesus for you, what shows He can’t satisfy that need of yours?
Love Is Patient
Just as Christ forgave us when we didn’t deserve forgiveness, be patient enough to forgive your loved ones. For love is patient.
Three Ways of Stirring Up God’s Favour in Your Life
As children of God, the importance of favour in our lives cannot be overemphasised. It is basically our spiritual legal tender for trade, our certificate in anything we do, our visa to anywhere on this Earth and our key to unlocking any kind of door we want in life, all for the glory of our Father. Here are three ways of stirring up God’s favour in our lives.
