Live to God

Dec26

For the death that He died, He died to sin once for all; but the life that He lives, He lives to God.
Romans 6:10 NASB

Jesus died for you. Jesus died for me. Jesus is alive. Do you believe it? Jesus lives to God. Do we?

🌹Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children; and walk in love, just as Christ also loved you and gave Himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God as a fragrant aroma.
Ephesians 5:1‭-‬2 NASB

An offering and a sacrifice to God. Are we a fragrant aroma to God?

Philippians 3:17

Jul7

Brethren, join in following my example, and observe those who walk according to the pattern you have in us.
Philippians 3:17 NASB

Are you an observer? Do you learn from watching and listening to others? As far back as I can remember I witnessed attributes that I avoided and attributes I picked up and imitated. I’ve learned a lot from watching and listening to others, especially from godly people.

🌹Lord Jesus, awesome example of walking with the Father. Worthy to be praised for Your love lived out for all to follow and grow in knowledge of and service to You. For You gave us an example that we also should do as You did to and for us. Thank You for godly examples found in Your word, those we walk with today, and through knowing You and following Your example. God, I pray that I would be a godly example before others as I imitate Christ, not lording it over anyone, but proving to be an example to others.
Jesus, may I always be an imitator of You before others so as to draw them to You, the perfect One to imitate. For Your glory and in Your name I pray, amen.
John 13:15/1 Corinthians 4:16/1 Corinthians 11:1/1 Peter 5:3 NASB
