Matthew 6:33
“But seek first the kingdom of GOD and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.”
1 John 2:15-17
“Do not love the world or anything in the world... whoever does the will of GOD lives forever.”
Matthew 22:37
“You shall love the LORD your GOD with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.”
To live a godly life, we must focus on GOD in everything, work with a sincere heart as prescribed in the Bible and surrender our self-driven will to His SPIRIT, resisting temptations from the world around us. —The core of living for GOD isn't just about big accomplishments, but about how we approach our daily tasks and decisions. When we strive to honor the LORD in all we do, whether it's our work, our relationships, or our quiet moments, we're living a life centered on Him. This involves a continual surrender of our own self desires to His will, remembering that His grace in CHRIST JESUS empowers us to be a light to the world and a testament to His active presence in our lives.
Prayer:
Heavenly FATHER, thank You for Your enduring grace and mercy. Help me to see that every moment of this day is an opportunity to live godly. You give me the courage to surrender my own plans and to walk in the path You've set before me. Strengthen me to resist the temptations of the world and to reflect Your light and love to those around me. May my life be a testimony to Your power, not in my own strength, but in the power of Your HOLY SPIRIT dwelling within me. In JESUS’ Mighty Name I pray, Amen.
