BE HOLY!



9-12-2011. . . .BE HOLY!

"Obey God because you are his children; don't slip back into your old ways-doing evil because you knew no better.  But be holy now in everything you do, just as the Lord is holy, who invited you to be his child.  He himself has said, "You must be holy, for I am holy." (1 Peter 1:14-16 TLB)  God is Holy!  We were made in His image and after His own likeness, therefore, we are holy!  God does not ask or expect us to 'become' holy, He expects us to 'Be' what He knows we already are; HOLY!  The problem is not with us being holy, (we already are) the problem is with us acting holy!  When are actions don't match our image, we make God look bad in the eyes of the world.  We must strive daily to ensure that our actions match His image!

Prayer: Lord, you are holy!  You have created us in your image and likeness.  May our actions match your image.  Amen!


Eph 1:3-4. . . .Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:   According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:  KJV
