MFM Daily Devotional April 4, 2022 MESSAGE
In the world of today, people no longer want to hear only the words we proclaim. Rather, they want to see how we relate with people around us. Nobody wants to do what you say, but what you do. Jesus became our perfect example when He came to the world as a man. He went about doing good, seeking those who were lost and helping the helpless.
How are you going about your Christian journey? Do you say one thing and do another? Do you preach to others what you know you can’t do? I have seen a lot of people who said they can’t follow certain people to church because of their character.
I used to know a landlady who gave quit notice to all her tenants because she considered them a pain in the neck. They were all Christians from a particular church to which she also belonged. One day, her Pastor told her, “I have members that are seeking accommodation.” She told the Pastor outright that she does not want his members and that they constituted the majority of people she had evicted from her house because of their troubles.
Dear reader of this devotional, are you a worthy example of a believer that Christ can be proud of? Can people say of a truth that you are a man or woman of your words? God said of Abraham, “For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the LORD, to do justice and judgment; that the LORD may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him” (Genesis 18:19).
Beloved, what are you teaching those under your roof? In words and in deeds, are you an example of Christ that people can read and follow? Do you defend your faults or you come clean before God in repentance? Can God entrust souls to your care?
Are you misleading the weak ones or pointing them to Christ? I pray that, henceforth, your life will be so pleasing to the Lord that others will see Him in you, be attracted to Him and decide to follow Him, in the name of Jesus.
