POINTS OF WHAT I LEARNT.
I learnt that as servants of God, doing the things that pleases God should be our priority. Our primary focus should be on the things of God whether we are married or not. Our trust should be in God as believers and not on the riches of this world. The bible says that we should love God with all our heart and soul first, and secondly to our fellow men. Love for our fellow men is not to do evil to them but doing good to them instead. We should do good to all men especially to those in the household of faith. We should lend to those who borrow from us and not expect anything in return. We should owe no man but render what is due to all men. We should do good whenever we have the opportunity. Christ demonstrated his love for us by using himself as a sacrifice so that we can be redeemed and cleanse from iniquity. He also demonstrated his love by washing his disciples feet,so as his followers,we should imitate him.
The word which we keep in our heart is our maintenance as believers. Therefore,it is important that we store the word we receive. For the word to remain in us,we should avoid the things that will destroy our faith. When we receive the word and put it into practice,it means that we love God because not only the hearers of the word are justify but also the doers of the word. If we keep the word after hearing it,it will bear good fruit with patience. For the word to remain in us,we need patience and perseverance.
When trials and temptation comes,we should count it all joy because we shall receive the crown of life as Christ has promised us. In times of temptation,we should apply the word that we stored in our heart. If we always hold fast to the faithfulness of God, he will not allow us to be tempted beyond what we can bear. Temptation is a way for our faith to be tried. So in times of temptation we should not give up but we should persevere.
If we suffer face trails and temptation for the sake of Christ,we shall also regin with him. When temptation comes and we are able to overcome,we will be made perfect and complete. When temptation comes and we do not know what to do,we should ask in faith for God's direction and wisdom because God will make a way of escape if we call on him. Temptation is like a test to see if we are really practicing the word. When we don't go through fire,we will not be purify.
FORMAL BELIEF.
No contrary belief.
HOW DOES THE STUDY AFFECT ME.
The study has taught never to lose trust in God no matter the situation I am facing.
Thanks be to God.
