BIBLE MEDITATION:
Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God. 1 Corinthians 10:31
DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:
Did you know that the best argument for Christianity and the best argument against Christianity is…your life? That’s right. Not only are you a witness for Jesus, you’re part of the evidence of His reality. Your life needs to be Exhibit A. What will turn your city, your community—any place—to God is the evidence of a life transformed by the power of Jesus Christ.
When Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead, the religious leaders had a problem on their hands. Lazarus was living proof of Jesus’ power. He was who He said He was! Many believed in Him because of what they witnessed in Lazarus. His new life was a testimony they couldn’t refute!
What would happen if every Christian began to walk as Jesus walked, talk as Jesus talked, and love as Jesus loved? The world would take notice. When God’s people begin to live out what they say they believe, it will change lives.
ACTION POINT:
Sermons are one thing. Go out tomorrow morning and live for Jesus. Show it! Show the faith! Let your light shine before men. The best argument for Christianity and the best argument against Christianity is the life of a Christian.
I try to unplug each morning with Jesus with just my rocking chair, my Bible, and a pen.
Having a secret place is very important because I know that Jesus is always there waiting for me. I know where I can find Him! His presence is everywhere, but there are places where it is so thick you can cut it with a knife. You may not even have a front porch, but there is a secret place for you as well. God’s invitations are for anyone who will respond. There is no more important request than the one found in Psalm 27:8: “My heart has heard You say, ‘Come and talk with Me.’ And my heart responds, ‘Lord, I am coming.’”
