Some three thousand years ago the wise man, Solomon, said it: “A merry heart doeth good like a medicine” (Prov. 17:22). Modern doctors echo this sentiment. They tell us that a patient’s positive outlook and cheerful spirit – if he has these ingredients – may actually increase the effectiveness of the medication that is prescribed.
What do we mean when we say, “Behave your beliefs”? We are saying that the great truths of the Word of God that we cherish and believe must come alive in our everyday actions if we are to have any impact on the world around us.
Almighty God-absolutely perfect. .. and holy . . . and omnipotent. .. and omniscient … and eternal … and upholding all things by the word of His power-actually deigns to use for His great glory the weak and bungling creatures that we are!
Growing up in Christ. You need to decide what it is you’re standing for and stand for it instead of allowing yourself to be moved by every influence that comes along.
