TODAY'S READING
[Matthew 4:12-25]
TOPIC:
DECIDE TO BE DIFFERENT
TEXT:
"Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven." [Matthew 5:15-16]
You are created for distinction. You are redeemed to stand out. He said: "you are the light of the world...." You are different from the the people of the world. You are God's standard for the world.
The beauty of this is that God has equipped you to be all that He expects you to be. His world is there to give you direction. His grace is there to amplify your results and give you results beyond your sweat. By reason of these supernatural provisions, it is no longer a suggestion for you to be OUTSTANDING and STANDOUT to your world. It is a commandment. Every child of God is duty-bound to fulfill this commandment; salvation is for exceptionality, not for conventionality. Salvation makes a man unique; it makes the face of men glow. Genuine salvation makes a man sought after. Child of God, you are saved to stand out.
Make a resolve today to fulfill this kingdom mandate. Make a resolve to live the kind of life that will reveal to your world the beauty of salvation.
PRAYER
My Father, My Father, as I begin to pray, cause me to be different in my generation...
HAPPY NEW MONTH VIEWERS ALL OVER THE WORLD. IT'S OUR MONTH OF ESTABLISHMENT [2 CHRONICLES 20:20]
