Peace
and Blessings to you all in the mighty name of Jesus.
As
we go through our lives on a daily basis we must understand the importance of
honoring the God we serve. Everything we do and say should be preceded with
thoughts of honoring Him. In this message are a few areas in which we must
honor God in daily.
Honor
God In Conversation: As believers we must understand that our words not only
carry power but also are representation of God in which we have become a
spokesperson of the Kingdom of God. We have to be careful of every word that we
speak because we will have to give an account for every word (Matthew 12:36).
We must not engaged in foolish talk, arguments, debates, and nor should we use
foul language of any kind (Titus 3:9). Once we have experienced God and truly
are serious about serving him then he will teach us how to talk just as he does
according to Isaiah 50:4. Our words should be those of God because things we
speak as believers are tied to seasons in our lives and others. People should
hear wisdom in your conversation because of what God is saying through you at
that moment. There is a difference in Godly wisdom being spoken and someone
just wanting to show their intellectual ability about the word of God
(Colossians 2:8). Godly wisdom is learning the word of God and the application
of the word of God. Remember a wise man teaches his mouth according to Proverbs
16:23.
Honor
God In Daily Living: Each day of your life as a believer you should live to
represent God through your daily living. Once you repented, believed, and
proclaimed Christ as your savior then it’s no longer you who lives but Christ
within you (Galatians 2:20). Therefore God should be teaching and directing
your life daily in representation as well as fulfilling his agenda through you.
Your daily living should bring pleasure to the eyes of God because of how
sincere you are about honoring Him. We can’t say we are believers in God while
still entertaining the things of the world such as clubs and etc. The way you
use to live life should be gone because the word of God says light and darkness
can’t dwell together (2 Corinthians 6:14). Sometimes we tend to fool ourselves
saying well I haven’t been out in a while or I’m just going to go every blue
moon. What if there is someone who’s assigned to you watching but hasn’t come
forth yet? If you are saying one thing and doing another this could be damaging
to your witness as well as giving the wrong impression as if this is
acceptable. We are called to be imitators of Christ therefore we should
maintain a disciplined and committed life for Christ (1 Corinthians 11:1).
Honor
In Presentation: Many times we miss the importance of this but how we represent
God is important. Many people first encounter with Christ will be through you.
Some will have experienced the wrong image of who God is because of believers
who are straddling the fence or the things learned through traditional
religion. However God is a King who oversees a Kingdom in which we are heirs of
this Kingdom. As a believer it is your responsibility to make sure you
represent God in a manner that truly reveals who he is as well as his Kingdom.
Even how we present ourselves as representative of God must be to a level of
excellence.
Let’s
give God excellence in these areas of our lives so that he may find it pleasant
and worthy of all he has done for us.
