BECOMING LIKE CHRIST

  BECOMING LIKE CHRIST Romans 8:18-30 Devotional:- “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.

METICULOUS

METICULOUS

Scripture Reading: John 6:5-14
Devotional:- “So when they were filled, He said to His disciples, "Gather up the fragments that remain, so that nothing is lost." (V. 12) NKJV


    The act of being meticulous is a singular act that will always differentiate between the rich and the poor. This is one of the important attitude of life to become master over money. To be meticulous is to take extreme care in treatment of details i.e. little, little money. These are details of your capital, net, gross income and your savings. There is a very strong need to be meticulous because big money is gathered gradually and can be destroyed gradually (Isaiah 28:10). That is why those who love pleasure will be poor (Proverbs 21:16-17).

Jesus, having fed five thousand, He is still meticulous enough that they should gather the remnants. Do you know that a little here and a little there, they gather another twelve baskets full of bread? That is enough to feed the disciples and their family for two or three weeks.

Friend, there is no one created to be poor but we waste too many things with wrong financial attitude. If you sit down to calculate how much you spend in a month or in a year, you will be shocked that it will run to millions. Your spendings on call cards, transportation, soft drinks, gifts, shopping, funtime etc are in million every year. Someone else will sit down, do the calculations and cut each of them for savings. That way, you will be shocked of what you are saving. It's time to wake up. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to be disciplined to care for little, of money

“GOD GIVE EVERYONE, BUT ONLY THE METICULOUS CAN BE RICH”
