As Christians, we are to be pure in our inner hearts and holy in our outer lives. As children of God, we are to be driven to be as perfect as our Father in heaven. In this Church Age, we are given ample teachings on how to live the Christian life so that we are inwardly pure, outwardly holy, and set apart unto the Lord. Wives are instructed to be subject to their husbands while husbands are to love their wives. Children are to be obedient to their parents while fathers are to correct but not embitter their children. No matter what status or position we hold, at home or abroad, we are to do everything with dignity, humility, and to the glory of God "knowing that from the Lord we will receive the reward of the inheritance, because the Lord Christ is the One Whom we serve." When we fulfil our roles and responsibilities in our own family and within our wider community as instructed in His Word, we will certainly receive the reward of our inheritance but if we choose to ignore the Lord's instructions and walk in fleshly ways, He will judge us righteously and without favoritism. We are to serve the Lord, not a Preacher, a group of Deacons or Priests or even a Church, we are to serve the Lord. May we take to heart the practical instruction and godly guidance on the interpersonal roles and the relationships that are outlined in this verse and do all to the glory of God "knowing that from the Lord we will receive the reward of the inheritance because The Lord Christ Is The One Whom We Serve." since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving. Our United Prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank You that our eternal salvation is secure in Christ. Thank You that by faith in Him our sins have been forgiven, forever. We pray that we may live our lives to Your praise and glory and that, whether at home or in the wider world, we walk in humble obedience before You and do everything as unto the Lord. Thank You for Christ Who gave His life for us. We Pray that in everything we say and do, we may live my life for Him, in Whose name we pray, AMEN. |
Prayer
We are a growing group of people praying daily for and with others. We were led to start an online ministry to deliver what is needed more now than ever, a place where you can go to easily to submit a prayer request or requests involving others to pray for your needs. The Power of Prayer. Matthew 18:20- For where two or more come together in my name, there I am among them. You are never alone in prayer. The Power Of Numbers Praying.
We ask you to pray for this ministry, for its success in helping others in need of prayer. Archives
