12- 28- 10 MI DAILY DEVOTION (Romans 12:1-2)
WE ARE FOOL FOR CHRIST’S SAKE, BECAUSE WE BELIEVE THAT WE WERE SEPARATED FROM THE WORLD UNTO GOD.
1- “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. 2- And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.”
We are separated from the world’s system, style and its sinfulness.
(I Corinthians 3:18; Romans 1:22) 18- “Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise.” 22- “Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,”
People will call you a fool or fanatic and other names and modern terminologies because you identify yourself with the Lord Jesus Christ.
People will call you a fool because you put God first in your life and refuse to work on Sundays and double pay, because you have to be in church for Worship and other activities. (Matthew 6:33). “But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.”
People will call you fool because you stand for what is right and the truth. And people will call you FOOL because you say NO to Sin, Satan and the Self gratification. (II Corinthians 6:14-15). 14- “Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? 15- And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?”
When the Bible said, “Be ye separate, it doesn’t mean we should be “Separatists” but, to live a Godly, Holy and Christ’s centered life.
