LOOK AND LIVE

LOOK AND LIVE  Numbers 21:4-9 Devotional:- “Then the LORD said to Moses, "Make a fiery serpent, and set it on a pole; and it shall be that everyone who is bitten, when he looks at it, shall live” (V.8) NKJV      The lives of most men are faced with so many compounded problems and sorrow. What some go through is not explainable. This is because they give themselves to all kinds of bondages of the devil unknowingly. Many have compounded the situation by entering into a terrible covenant with darkness or by their addiction to unrighteousness. I have good news for you – there is a way out.

BECOMING LIKE CRIST

BECOMING LIKE CRIST

ROM 8:18-30
DEV:- “For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His son, that He might be the first born among many brethren” (V.29)

    The third purpose of your life is to become like Christ. From the very beginning God intend to make man to be like Himself (Gen 1:26). So like God, we are made a spirit and our spirit lives the body. We are intellectual, we can think and solve problems. We are relational, i.e. we can give and receive love. We also have a moral conscience to discern right from wrong which make us accountable to God.

God’s ultimate goal for you on earth is not comfort but character. He wants you to grow up and become like Christ. This does not mean losing your personality. Christlikeness is all about transforming your character and not your personality. Every time you forget that character development is the reason you are here you frustrate yourself. So, life is quite challenging because God is always attempting to mold us. Remember you are existing for God. 

For us to be Christ-like, we must cooperate with the work of the holy spirit in us. Character reformation happen when you obey God no matter the condition. Character reformation happen when you change the way you think to the way of the word of God. Consciously put on the character of Christ by developing new godly habits (Ephesians 4:24). Realize God use his word, people, circumstances to mold us. If you study and apply the word of God, fellowship regularly with other believers and learn to trust God in difficult times, you will become like Christ. God often prefer to work through people to make us value fellowship and growing together. Growth is always very slow but God wants you to endure in it to grow. Peace!

Prayer – Lord, help me to always yield to your word.

“IT IS YOUR CHARACTER NOT YOUR CAREER THAT MAKE YOU OF ETERNAL VALUE”
