TOPIC: THE LIFESTYLE OF A CHRISTIAN WORKER (PART 2)

TEXT: COLOSSIANS 3:22-25
22. Servants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh; not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but in singleness of heart, fearing God:
23. And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; 
24. Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ.
25. But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect of persons.

KEY VERSE: LUKE 1: 6 And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless 

Jesus called some individuals to be with Him so that He could disciple them before sending them out to work for Him (Mark 3: 13-19).  Being with Jesus prepares one to be like Jesus; But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord (2 Corinthians 3:18). 

A Christian worker should be like Jesus. How did Jesus live His life when He was on the earth? In part one, we saw that He lived pleasing the Father. Let’s identify more of Jesus’ way of life.

2. He was meek and lowly. Take My yoke upon you, and learn of Me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls (Mathew 11: 29). Jesus was totally free from pride and haughtiness. It is pride that gives birth to competition and contention among Christ’s servants; Only by pride cometh contention: but with the well advised is wisdom.

3. He was wise and perfect in behaviour. Though Jesus was made to be sin for us, He knew no sin (2 Corinthians 5: 21).  The wisdom of Jesus is from above and it is pure, clean and perfect. Congratulations to a Christian worker or leader who embraces these two great qualities. Wisdom will help you to render blameless and rewardable services while perfection will guarantee your entry into heaven.

4. Jesus was zealous for and dedicated to gospel work. And He said unto them, How is it that ye sought Me? Wist ye not that I must be about My Father’s business? Luke 2:49. Jesus was so obsessed by the promotion of the Father’s kingdom that He tarried in Jerusalem after the feast of Passover. He was found in the temple after three days search. What a life worthy of emulation by all Christian workers. With zeal and dedication, the revival of holiness will be done before Christ returns.       

Thought for the day: It pays to be like Jesus

Song for the day: Lord, I want to be like Jesus in my heart..

Bible reading for the day: Ezekiel 5-8

For taking your time to study remain blessed. UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...

Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on Me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto My Father.  13.

Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2)

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2) Wednesday 15th October TEXT: Titus 3: 3-6   Key verse: Titus 3: 6 “Which He shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior.” I remember I was in Sao Tome and Principe as a deeper life national overseer and I was writing the book, “Divine Revelation of God’s Holiness and Judgment.” The vision the Lord gave to Michael Sambo. I was translating it into a book, with the scriptural backups to make it a sound evangelistic book. I saw that truly the world is doomed. What will I say about those who have not known Jesus among the 7 billion people on earth; those who do not even have anything to do with Him? Do I speak of the billions in Asia without understanding of Jesus? Out of the 1.4 billion in India, they are struggling to record 150 million Christians including Catholics.  Who knows Jesus then? Even among Pentecosta...
