A LIFESTYLE OF WORSHIP
A lifestyle of worship is essential if we are to overcome in order to "become."
Worship must be part of our everyday lives if we are to become living sacrifices.
Romans 12:1
Living Sacrifices
1Therefore, I urge you, brothers,in view of God's mercy,
to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God—
this is your spiritual act of worship.
Harland says that "the battleground is clear: our bodies will become a living sacrifice on one altar or the other--either to God or to the world system. God so loved the world that He gave all we need to overcome, but we must do our part, and this involves two things. First, we must recognize and acknowledge the battle for the conformity of our minds and our lives. Second, we must be equipped to overcome those powers and principalities that assault us and our families, fellow believers around the world, and our nation" (p. 101-102, workbook).
Today's study also speaks about our battle and states that we are equipped for the battle through:
- prayer
- fasting
- worship
- the Word of God
How are you doing with your equipment? Let me know your thoughts.
Have a blessed Tuesday.
