THE TRUMPET OF LIFE!

Can we make still make IMPACT if we SEPARATE ourself from people?
Perhaps the PRICES of a SEPARATED LIFE are too much to bear!



Lots of excuses we put ‘together’ and drop to ‘excuse’/to justify our compromises and worldliness.
Worldliness definition: Concern with material values or ordinary life rather than a spiritual existence.
Despite sufferings, the apostles still consecrated themselves to IMPACT their world.
Consecrated
/ˈkän(t)səˌkrādəd/
adjective
- (of a church or land) having been made or declared sacred.
What was their secret?
Listen 2 Cor. 6:1-10.
“In our work together with God, then, we beg you who have received GOD’S GRACE NOT to let it be WASTED.”
2 Cor. 6:1 (GNT)
The GRACE of God through Christ is divine input to help us resist sin; not a license to do evil, that’s what the apostles did to prune themselves to fulfillment of their ministry. Can you Love people but not their sinful pleasures? Notably, we can be a difference-making umbrella shielding our world only when we stand out!
The truth? consecration is a matter of choices and values, it’s not enforced… so, be deliberate about it to secure God’s Fatherhood!
2 Corinthians 6:17-18 is a biblical passage where God calls believers to separate from the world and ungodly influences, promising to be their Father and accept them as His children. The verses are a command to be separate from sin and “unclean things,” and an assurance that He will be a father to those who obey.
2 Corinthians 6:17-18
- Verse 17: “Therefore go out from their midst, and be separate from them, says the Lord, and touch no unclean thing; then I will welcome you”.
- This is a call to separate from the corruption and compromises of the world.
- It is a reminder that believers should not be entangled with anything that defiles or leads to sin.
- Verse 18: “and I will be a father to you, and you shall be sons and daughters to me, says the Lord Almighty”.
- This is God’s promise of acceptance and a close relationship to those who choose to obey.
- It highlights the identity of believers as children of God, who are meant to live apart from the world’s self-centered ways.
May the GRACE of God help us through life.🙏🔥
