Bless the Lord, then bless the saints, and then bless the unregenerate in love.
The Bible tells us we must have an intimate, obedient, close friendship-relationship with God through Christ... if we want to grow, please Him, and enjoy the future He has planned for us. But a spiritually born again relationship alone isn’t all we need. We must also dwell in fellowship with Him daily. He expects faithfulness and fruitfulness. Let Jesus lead you. HE calls us to this “Abiding in the vine”. (See John 15)
Doin' my best I commit the rest.
Our ministry is upwards, inwards (to those of God’s church) and outwards to the lost, last and least. We biblically worship, respectfully witness, and then tactfully disciple other believers wanting this spiritual maturity as they too follow the Lord.
The psalmist wrote, “He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty” (Psalm 91:1 nkjv).
Have you ever tried to walk in another person’s shadow? You must be close to them and in step with them.
