Live A Consecrated Life

in #steemchurch8 years ago (edited)




It is said that ignorance is a disaster. understanding and appreciating the reason for our being is worth noting. Our call is our mission, purpose, and reason for our being. We can never understand our call without recognizing that God is the one who has called us and therefore has the reason for same.


God called us from our sinful nature to consecrate us for his own divine purpose. The core of our call is to live pure lives with the view of pleasing him. The will of God to our calling is to consecrate us, separate and set us apart for purity and holy living. They is no doubt that we are fully and completely sanctified and made holy in Jesus Christ.

In fact, we are sanctified both positionally and progressively. Positional sanctification means the moment we believe in Jesus, we become saints by position in God's sight, because of the righteousness of Christ which was added to us by the Holy Spirit. With progressively we are to live a sanctified life through personal holiness by the help of the holy spirit. We have to work out the sanctification through the way we live our lives. We must neglect all forms of immorality, including sexual vices that will destroy our godly temple and take us away from God's divine purposes for our call. We must endeavour to live lives with the view of pleasing God.

Prayer:

Help me Lord Jesus to serve in holiness and righteousness before you all the days of my life.
