Our theme for coming 20th anniversary “PRESS ON – Growing Stronger, Deeper and Higher – really speaks so much to me. Particularly this time of pandemic, besides seems the world we are living are not getting any better. So the best now is look upward and focusing to accomplish that goal of reaching heaven.
We need strategy to achieve the heavenward goals. Let us talk about one thing you need to do, be STRONGER. Be stronger in every possible thing that Gods desires from us.
Read it through – S T R O N G E R !
SANTIFICATION 2 Timothy 2:22, “Flee also youthful lusts; but pursue righteousness, faith, love, peace with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.”
When we were young we are overwhelmed by our emotion that we don’t care any other feelings as long you happy you do it. Now God calls us to live in Holiness – As you have been sanctified by Christ death. Stronger to resist the devil.
TRUST
–When you say, you trust God, how you suppose to respond when challenges arises in your life? Do You panic, do you worry, or you are relaxed? People who have Stronger trust on God never panic, never worry when a challenge come. Why because you have a stronger Trust on God that he will not leave you nor forsake you. Look at this verse.
Psalm 56:3-4 When I am afraid, I put my trust in you. In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I shall not be afraid. What can flesh do to me?
Reverence – God indeed need to be given that high worship and reverence. Stronger in Worship and reverence on God will set you up on high. The Devil does not like people to worship God and give him the reverence he deserves. – Hebrews 12:28 “Therefore, since we receive a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us show gratitude, by which we may offer to God an acceptable service with reverence and awe;”
OBEDIENCE
Achieving the heavenward goals – will be impossible without being stronger in your obedience to all God words and commandment. 1 Samuel 15:22 ESV “And Samuel said, “Has the Lord as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the Lord? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to listen than the fat of rams.”
NEVER GIVE UP
Desiring to become stronger in physical and spiritual does not comes easy- you have to persevere and never give up. 2 Corinthians 4:8-10 “We are hard pressed on all sides, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; “persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed. We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body.…”
GROWING
Up your faith, becoming stronger in facing obstacles by trusting God for the results – No point of stressing something you cannot change, move on and grow stronger,
EDUCATION
Be stronger in your education! Never stop learning specially educating yourself with the Word of God! Remember this word “Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away. ‘Learn from it day and night – sure you will be stronger.
Righteousness
Living in righteousness as believer is not an option-Living in the righteousness of God not
only make stronger spiritually but also filled with blessings. “But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.” ~ Matthew 6:33
Be safe, Be blessed and let us keep sharing the word.
