I am…Pursuing Godliness
“But you, man of God, flee from all this, and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance and gentleness.” 1Tomthy 6:11 NIV”
I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 3:14 NIV
“Therefore let us pursue the things which make for peace and the things by which one may edify another.” Romans 14:19 NKJV
In our former selves we were dead, were soldiers of darkness and dealers of death in our hearts, tongues, and deeds. God’s ways were far from us and we did not honor Him. Upon receiving the gift of salvation and being placed in Christ we not only were regenerated from the inside out but given a heart that seeks after the things that bring Him glory. We have been set on a path of godly pursuit.
God continues to work in us a desire for godliness. Join me today in praying for an increase in that realization, that this is who we are.
WE ARE CALLED TO PURSUE GODLINESS.
