GOD WANTS YOU TO BE HOLY Keep yourself pure. 1 Timothy 5:22 God wants us to be holy as He is holy.It is our highest glory to imitate our Father in His holiness. Nothing more brings joy to His heart than that. The following are few guidelines to help you keep yourself pure. Dont let your emotions lead you. Decide to trust in Gods reliable leading rather than your own unreliable and constantly shifting feelings. If you sense God leading you clearly to act, go ahead and do so, even when it doesnt make sense to you. Be patient. Remember that there is an end to every challenge. Instead of giving in to temptation, press closer into God and ask Him to renew your strength during a hard time. If you dont see immediate answers to your prayers, keep praying and expect God to answer them at exactly the right time. Trust that God will redeem your mistakes. Expect that, just like all imperfect people living in our fallen world, you will make mistakes. But also expect that God will right what youve wronged if you invite Him to do so. Regularly clear sin out of your life. Ask God to constantly search your heart and show you areas of sin that you need to deal with in order to truly enjoy life. Confess your sins honestly and frequently, repent of them, and embrace Gods forgiveness and grace to keep growing. Expect that the more you submit every part of your life to God,the more of His wisdom He will reveal to you. Prayer: Keep me pure, Lord Jesus, keep me pure. Scriptural Reading: 1 Timothy 5:17-25
