He Instructs

He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?

Micah 6:8

Last week we discussed growing in our faith and life. One of the primary ways we grow is through instruction.

It is no different for us as Christians.

So how are we instructed?

By being in His Word and listening to the Holy Spirit’s direction in our lives. If we listen to the same lessons and read the same words, but learn nothing in the process, we are not being faithful disciples. We are not being who God Calls us to be.

“Lord, send us Your Spirit and teach us today!”

Scriptures

  • Deuteronomy 30:15-20
  • Matthew 5:21-37

He Sanctifies

He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?

Micah 6:8

God Calls us where we are in life, wherever and whenever that may be.

But He doesn’t want us to stay there.

He Calls us to draw closer to Him. He Calls us to grow in our faith and living. He Calls us to move from where we are to a place as close to perfection as possible this side of eternity. He Call us to a sanctified life!

May we continue to grow in our faith and life as we follow Jesus!

Scriptures

  • Isaiah 58:6-9
