PRESERVING YOUR CHRISTIANLIFE IN RIGHTEOUSNESS ANDHOLINESS PART 1
TEXT: 2 PETER 1:3-7
Key verse: Matthew 24:13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
You are saved as at today, and if rapture comes you will definitely go with Jesus. But rapture may not come today or tomorrow. This is the reason you must know how to preserve your life in righteousness and holiness. The life of a Christian is constantly at risk and being attacked by Satan, your father, mother, son or daughter or friend could pull you down.
This is why Jesus says in Revelation 3:11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.
Here are instructions for the preservation of your Christian life.
PURPOSE YOUR HEART FOR HOLINESS AND HEAVEN. Fix your heart on holiness. Fix your heart in heaven. Daniel 1:8 But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king's meat, nor with the wine which he drank: therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuchs that he might not defile himself. There is great energy in a man - physical or spiritual, and also there is great grace waiting for a man. Solomon says, "Whatever my soul desires I reach out and acquire it." So, if you make up your mind to do something you will do it. If on the other hand you make up your mind not to do something, you will not do it.
There was an old woman who saw her son being run over by a vehicle and the boy was trapped under. She shouted and ran to the vehicle and lifted it up freeing her son. People asked her later, "Mama, where did you get that energy from?" “I don't know,” she replied. Peter was determined to walk on water as Jesus did. He never imagined he could sink. All in his mind was "I too can walk on this water." If you make up your mind you will never commit immorality again it shall be so.
When your heart is on heaven, nothing in this world will distract or corrupt you.
Then you can say, “Take the whole world and give me Jesus.”
Matthew 6:19 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: 20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: 21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
Tomorrow, we shall look at other instructions for preservation of your salvation.
Thought for the day: You need strong determination to become and overcomer.
Song for the day: Where He leads me I will follow…
Bible reading for the day: Ezra 9-10; Acts 1
