LET'S PREACH THE GOSPEL WITH OUR GOOD BEHAVIORS.
DISCIPLES OF CHRIST:
IF WE ARE TRULY OF GOD, WE MUST BEHAVE AS CHILDREN OF THE MOST HIGH.
AND PERHAPS, IF THERE ARE SOME AREAS IN OUR BEHAVIOR THAT NEEDS ADJUSTMENTS, WE MUST RE-ADJUST WITHOUT ANY DELAY. TOMORROW IS NOT GIVEN.
MARK, 1:-15 “THE TIME IS FULFILLED, AND THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS AT HAND: REPENT YE, AND BELIEVED THE GOSPEL.”
WE ARE RUNNING A RACE THAT MUST BE WON, FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION.
THERE ARE THREE IMPORTANT THINGS THAT WE MUST HAVE IF WE ARE TO WIN THIS RACE.
OUR FAITH IN GOD THROUGH CHRIST MUST BE AS STRONG AS THE ROCK ON WHICH OUR LORD BUILT HIS CHURCH.
WE MUST HAVE THE HEART OF FORGIVENESS. THE BIBLE SAYS, WE MUST FORGIVE OTHERS THAT OUR HEAVENLY FATHER MAY FORGIVE US. (MATTHEW, 6:-14-15)
AND ALSO WE MUST GIVE TO CHARITY. BY HIS ACT OF GIVING, WE WERE MADE SONS OF THE MOST HIGH GOD. WE ARE NO LONGER SLAVES, NO LONGER ALIENS TO THE COMMONWEALTH OF HIS HEAVENLY KINGDOM.
LUKE, 6:-38 “GIVE, AND IT SHALL BE GIVEN UNTO YOU; GOOD MEASURE, PRESSED DOWN, AND SHAKEN TOGETHER, AND RUNNING OVER, SHALL MEN GIVE INTO YOUR BOSOM. FOR WITH THE SAME MEASURE THAT YE METE WITHAL IT SHALL BE MEASURED TO YOU AGAIN.”
THERE ARE THREE WAYS TO ASK FROM GOD.
BY PRAYER AND FASTING. (MATTHEW,17:-22)
BY THANKSGIVING. (EPHESIANS, 4:-6-7)
AND BY CHARITY. (EPHESIANS, 4:-32)
WE ARE TO ALWAYS REMEMBER THE PARABLE OF THE UNFORGIVING SERVANT IN THE BOOK OF MATTHEW, 18:-21-35.
FINALLY, DISCIPLES OF CHRIST, LET US REJOICE AND AIM FOR RESTORATION, COMFORT ONE ANOTHER, AGREE WITH ONE ANOTHER, LIVE IN PEACE AND THE GOD OF LOVE AND PEACE WILL BE WITH US.
IN JESUS MIGHTY NAME WE PRAY. AMEN.
