RESTORATION TODAY
SUNDAY, MARCH 29, 2020.
TOPIC: *LIVING TO PLEASE GOD*
"Furthermore then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort you by the Lord Jesus, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk and to please God, so ye would abound more and more." 1 Thessalonians 4:1.
*MESSAGE*
The question before you and I today is simply this: for whom are you living your life? Many live their lives to please themselves or the devil, whereas it is God's earnest desire that we live a life that will please Him. (Romans 6:16). Leaving to please God will result in fruits of righteousness which will attract many to come and taste of the same salvation that we are enjoying.
Living means existing, functioning and making use of privileges. To please means to make someone happy or to bring pleasure to somebody or to give maximum satisfaction unto somebody. Since God is our Creator, Preserver and Sustainer of all things, living to please Him means living a life that brings satisfaction, honour, and glory to God Almighty. This is, in fact, the main purpose of our existence (Revelation 4:11).
This, every man that is created by God has a primary function of giving glory unto God Almighty. We must ensure we are doing just that through our lifestyle. May God help us.
*ACTION POINT*
Whenever you leave to please God, eternity is sure.
*SCRIPTURES*
Genesis 17:1; Revelation 4:11; Romans 6:16.
*PRAYER POINTS*
1. My Father and my Lord, thank You for keeping me alive;
2. My Lord and Savior, in any way I might have been living my life that is unpleasing unto you, please forgive me;;
3. Any satanic manipulation that wants to keep me perpetually in a lifestyle that is unpleasant to God, I invoke the power of the Holy Spirit against it in the name of Jesus.
*THE BIBLE IN ONE YEAR*
Leviticus 5:14-6.7; Psalm 105; Acts 28:11-31.
