WHOM DO YOU FOLLOW?
MEMORY VERSE: “Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children; And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet smelling savour (Ephesians 5:12)
Everyone is looking for who or what to follow. Children try to follow after their parents.
teenagers follow or imitate friends and celebrities. Adults also engage in followership of role models, especially in politics and social life. How then can we as Christians decide whom to follow?
According to Arthur W. Pink, The Christian Iife is a life that consists of following Jesus” God perceived our need for instruction and example of way of life expected of us, then He sent us Jesus Christ, our perfect role model (Hebrews 4:15). Following someone other than Jesus is catastrophic.
People have ruined their lives here on earth and in eternity because they imitated worldly and ungodly models. That is way Richard of Chichester
prayed, Day by day, dear Lord of Thee three things I pray. To see Thee more clearly, to love Thee more dearly., to follow Thce more nearly. Following Jesus entails living and loving like Him whilst letting go of things and practices that may destroy you in the end. The decision to
follow Him could bring pain denial, ridicule and humilation like Jesus encountered. However, it will worth it at last.
Qoute: Jesus Christ our perfect role model
Challenge: Live as God’s renewed image bearer in
the world.
Prayer: Help me Lord to follow Thee more nearly
