It's day 10 of 21 days of Prayer and Fasting. "I Focus" pt 2. Reflecting on what should be my focus in this season of my life. In part 1, I discerned it was necessary to separate out what we should not be doing in this season. Romans 12, again the suggested text. One of the things, I love about the word is that it always provides full and complete counsel/answers/clarity. "don't to that" "do this" Today, "we focus" on what "to do" in this season....
- Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world... Do: Let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think
- Don’t think you are better than you really are... Do: Be honest in your evaluation of yourselves
- Don’t just pretend to love others... Do: Really love them. Hate what is wrong. Hold tightly to what is good
- Never be lazy...Do: Work hard and serve
- Don’t curse them (people who curse you)...Do: Pray that God will bless them
- Don’t be too proud to enjoy the company of ordinary people...Do: Live in harmony with each other
- Don’t think you know it all!...Do: Live in harmony with each other
- Never pay back evil with more evil... Do: Do things in such a way that everyone can see you are honorable. Do all that you can to live in peace with everyone.
- Never take revenge... Do: Leave that to the righteous anger of God
- Don’t let evil conquer you...Do: Conquer evil by doing good
Today its about our "To Do's"...In this season of our history, its like God is speaking from Heaven, reminding us that His ways never change! What an opportunity to respond to situations and circumstances with a resolve that we can be different...that we can make a difference!
