It's important that we live a Christ centered life.
Romans 12:1-2, 14
Proverbs 16:6
Pslams 19:9
There's so much we can learn from Romans 12:1-2. We need to absorb all that these verses offer
- Self-centered Christ centered
- Controlled by sin Follows Christ
When we obey God, He will be there to lead us through our lives. There's power in the word of God. We need to be self-sacrificing and recognize what Jesus does in your life. De je'vue is God moving something out of your life. When that happens we need to give thanks. God wants to bless us.
- We were created to worship. If you don't worship God, then you're worshipping something else. We should worship Jesus every change we get and spread the gospel message to others. Born again Christians have a better span of life than non-believers. And born again Christians, when their lives come close to the end, they have more peace in their hearts than non-believers. The more you worship and follow Christ, the more we become like Him.
- A Christ centered life requires to read the word of God. God responds to our prayers through the word of God. God doesn't force you to love Him. But when we worship, we do it of our own free will.
- To have a Christ centered life, we need to act on what God wants us to do; have a relationship with Jesus.
- Having a Christ centered life is not to be confused with have a religious life. If Christ isn't in your heart, you won't have love for others in your heart.
- Understand the fear of the Lord. Knowing that whatever happens in our lives, Christ is there.
Remember the consequences of not serving God. God doesn't allow things to happen to us out of the blue. He gives us the chance to reflect on what we can fix in our Christian walk.
Sanctification = lviing harmoniously with God.
