“Whatever you do, do it enthusiastically, as something done for the Lord and not for men.” Colossians 3:23 HCSB
Genuine, heartfelt Christianity is contagious. If you enjoy a life-altering relationship with God, that relationship will have an impact on others. Are you genuinely excited about your faith? Or are you a “silent ambassador” for Christ? God’s preference is clear in that He intends that you stand before others and proclaim your faith. Share your testimony and your excitement. The world needs both. “As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.” Psalm 103:12
We make mistakes or fail and cringe at what God must think. Others don’t let us forget our wrongdoing so why should God? Once we confess our offenses to God and turn away from them, they’re completely gone. They are the only thing about us God will ever forget. We may remember how we have disobeyed God and have to face some consequences, He forgives us and refuses to recall the sins we have committed. East and west will never meet, and we will never have to face our sins again. Let’s forgive ourselves and thank God when He removes our transgressions, they are erased forever! Live in Your God-given Blessings Today! “For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there among them.” Matthew 18:20 HCSB
As Christians we are compelled not only to worship God in our hearts but also to worship Him in the presence of fellow believers. We live in a world that is teeming with temptations and distractions, a world where good and evil struggle in a constant battle to win our hearts and souls. Our challenge is to ensure that we cast our lot on the side of God. One way to ensure that we do so is by the practice of regular, purposeful worship with our families. When we worship God faithfully and fervently, we are blessed. |
