TODAY’S TURNING POINT WITH DR. DAVID JEREMIAH DAILY DEVOTIONAL 21 AUGUST 2024 MESSAGE
Read David Jeremiah Daily Devotional 21 August 2024, Wednesday Turning Point Devotional Message
TOPIC: The Worthy Walk
I…beseech you to walk worthy of the calling with which you were called.
Ephesians 4:1
Recommended Reading: Ephesians 4:1-6
Did you grow up among Christians who said, “Don’t drink, smoke, chew, or go with folks who do”? Lots of churches had “lists” of what to avoid and definitions of worldliness that might include things like playing cards, dancing, and shopping on Sundays. Many churches are more relaxed with their “lists” nowadays, but we mustn’t let the pendulum swing too far in the other direction.
As Christians, we are to walk worthy of the calling we have received. That means we should remember we are followers of Jesus and there are some things we are to avoid, some thoughts we should reject, and some habits we ought to change. They aren’t healthy for us in body, soul, or testimony. We don’t want to violate our calling or misrepresent our Savior. Instead, we should have our Christlike character on full display. It’s not a matter of legalism but of true spirituality.
Ask the Lord for wisdom in evaluating your habits and knowing how to walk worthy of the calling you have received.
It appears that too many Christians want to enjoy the thrill of feeling right but are not willing to endure the inconvenience of being right.
