Going deeper...to go further

This month we’re using the daily Bible reading plan to do a Spiritual MOT as we prepare for the journey ahead. Often times it is easy for us to focus on the "paint job" of outward appearances, but God looks directly at the engine room of the heart (1 Samuel 16:7). 2 Corinthians 13:5 calls us to examine ourselves to ensure our faith is genuine and active.

The reading plan starts with a couple days of preparation, followed by four weeks of honest reflection before the Lord. Each day, as we read the Scripture, we need to as ask the Holy Spirit: "Is this an area where I need you to help me work on?" If so, what does that change look like in your life? This isn't meant to bring condemnation; it's a beautiful opportunity for calibration and getting right with God.

Our prayer response: "Lord, examine me. Search my heart. Reveal anything that hinders my walk with You. Repair what is broken, realign what has drifted, remove what does not belong, and fill me afresh with Your Spirit. Make me a trustworthy vessel, ready for Kingdom purpose and faithful until the day I stand before You. Amen."

Spiritual MOT: Lights, tyres & exhaust

Can people see Christ through my lifestyle?

Matthew 5:13-16

Be salt and light13"You are to be salt for the world. However, if salt is stale it loses its taste, and what can you do to restore its saltiness? Nothing! It may as well be thrown away and trampled underfoot!14"You are to give light to the world. A city built on a hilltop cannot be hidden from sight.15Neither do people hide the light from a lamp under a basin. No, they place the lamp on a lamp-stand where it can give light to the whole house.16In the same way, your spiritual light is to be evident to all around you; so that they can see the good things you do and then praise your Father in heaven.

Philippians 2:12-16

Faithful witnesses12My dear friends, you see why it has been so important for you to obey the Lord, not only when I am with you but even more when we are apart. Continue to live as those who are saved, who fear the Lord, dreading the idea of ever denying Him.13For God Himself is at work within you so that you want to do what is good in His eyes.14-16Therefore, there is to be no complaining or arguing among you, no matter what you are asked to do, for this will enable you to become blameless and pure, living as God's children in an unrighteous and depraved generation. You are to shine like the stars in the universe as you share the Word of life with others. Then on the great Day of the Lord I will be able to boast that all my work among you was not for nothing.
