Another good reminder, again, we are called with a holy calling! Are you taking it seriously? Are you grateful, prayerful, positive, loving, and joyful in the Lord?
I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called,
⏤ Ephesians 4:1
Prayer is not overcoming God’s reluctance, but laying hold of His willingness.
⏤ Martin Luther
Another good reminder, again, we are called with a holy calling! Are you taking it seriously? Are you grateful, prayerful, positive, loving, and joyful in the Lord? I read the Mornings with God App daily! I love it. I love all their prayers, Bible verses, quotes, and all on the Mornings with God App, it is one of the best. Today, they offer such a nice reminder of our holy calling.
The Mornings of God App today said, "O Jesus, You have called us with a holy calling. We desire to be worthy of the honor You have bestowed upon us. You have redeemed us by Your blood. You have taken us into fellowship with Yourself. You are not ashamed to call us brethren. You have made us heirs of God, joint heirs with You. You have given us eternal life! Make us indeed worthy of this exalted honor. Cleanse and purify us, that we may be like You in spirit, disposition, and character. Give us the same desires that are in Your heart, that we may hate what You hate and love what You love. May we be partakers in Your work for the upbuilding of Your cause and the extension of Your kingdom. Give us this day the same mind that was in You. You left Your heavenly glory and became human, that You might be our Redeemer. You lived to serve, giving out Your life in unsparing service, even dying in love for Your people. We desire to have the same spirit. Save us from all selfishness, which would lead us to withhold ourselves from serving others with the best that is in us. Save us from all pride, which would lead us to think of ourselves more highly than we ought to think, and may we always be clothed with humility. Lead us into Your ways of service. Lord Jesus, help us to live this day as You would live if You were here in our place. May we be holy, harmless, undefiled, and separate from sinners. May we be kind in all our family relationships and with those outside. Help us to be diligent in all our business. May we live unspotted from the world. Bless us in all ways in Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen." Found at: https://www.youdevotion.com/daily-prayer/miller/68/morning
We as humans need to be careful, careful not to hate, to be negative, to live in misery. We need to follow Jesus, to reflect, forgive, imitate, and love like Him! We need to be more grateful, count our blessings, recognize God, follow Jesus, be prayerful, positive, loving, and joyful in the Lord! It is so true that we need to live unspotted from the world. Bless us in all ways in Jesus Christ our Lord!
