THE BLESSINGS OF GODLINESS
Wonderful and power-packed message brought to us by Serena during CG this week (:
Godliness can ensure divine protection over our lives.
To be godly is to be set apart and aside for God leading a lifestyle of God, living for Jesus. Having Jesus as our life foundation, that our lives will reflect the qualities, nature and character of God in us.
God is certainly our ABBA Father. Like any parent would, He wants to love, care, guide and watch us grow up healthily. We can have the faith that He wants to protect us, His precious children, from harm’s way. As we trust in Him, He will guide us, giving us divine protection over the path He intended for us to take. when we walk with God, our spirit man is alive.. only then will we be able to know and perceive the right, God-protected and God-guided path for us!
So let’s be confident of who we belong to and serve, because we can have confidence in God for we are inspired by Him in the Spirit. When we are godly, we can walk in God’s thoughts: "Thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you(us) a future and a hope." (Jer 29:11)
Trials and tribulations will come, 'but God saves the day'. He will protect and deliver us from it. but it will take something out of everyone of us. There must be something more. Something more to make us not want to stay at where we are. That we can cut away that bridge that’ll take us back to our old lifestyle and simply keep on trusting God.
Together, let's equip ourselves with the Word of God and keep on trusting in His Heart even when we don't see His Hand. the benefits of godliness is for us and is for NOW.
For all in all, we know that in God, we may not get a smooth journey.. but we can stand in the promise of a safe one. yay (:
