Matthew 6:30-33 Seek ye first the kingdom of God. You should be guided by principles in God and not passions. This is a principle that would resolve alot of problems at home, in families, in marriages- it would resolve stresses and etc. What are you passionate about in Christ? When people look at you what would they say that you are most passionate about? Matthew 6:21 – For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. God said that he is a jealous God. You set an example for others around you- good or bad. Your behaviour, attitude and etc. will affect your kids, children at church, people at church, and etc. There is nothing more important than putting God first. You should live for worship and for Sunday. God said that where your treasure is there will your heart be also. What statement is you life gong to make? What are you hoping will be the impact of the activities that you are doing? Only what you do for Christ will stand. If the only statement that I make does not add up to be Christ than it is not worth anything. Communion reflects that he really loves us and now are life is supposed to reflect that we really love him.
Psalms 119:57-64 v. 57- you got to make a commitment in the Lord. v. 63 christian life is about fellowship. Psalms 119:129-133 People talk about what they like and don’t like all the time. It is not about how you feel. v. 133- whatever it is in your life that is not right then you need to stop it.
