SEPARATE WALK FOR SAINTS – 1
TEXT: EPHESIANS 4:17-31
MEMORY VERSE: “This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye henceforth walk not as other Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind” (EPHESIANS 4:17).
Dottie Rambo, a renowned gospel singer and writer, started her music career at age 8. She grew up in poverty at a time of great despair. By age 10, with the support of her parents, she was performing country music cover tunes on a local radio program. Then she gave her life to Christ at age 12, and decided to only write and sing Christian music.
This didn’t go down well with her daddy who asked her to give up Christian music or leave his house. She wouldn’t let go of her love for Christ and so she chose the later. She left home and hit the road, performing in churches. She wrote over 2,500 gospel songs that have transformed lives, consoling and uplifting through good and trying times. What about you? Have you decided to follow Jesus, not allowing lust, sexual impurity, covetousness, anger, love of the world, malice, blasphemy, filthy language, and lying in your life? Like Dottie Rambo, focus on Christ and His Word, setting your love on things above, not on things on the earth.
QUOTE: Set your love on things above.
CHALLENGE: We must keep sin out else it invades our lives.
PRAYER: Oh God, help me to walk long with You in Jesus’ name
