Consistency


Consistency counts when it comes to living in a way that pleases God.

But whoever looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues in it—not forgetting what they have heard, but doing it—they will be blessed in what they do. James 1:25

We have many potential areas which keeps us from accomplishing all the things that God would have us to do.

Reasons for our failures:
Time – usually not enough of it.
Tough – the task is just too hard.
Terrible – to describe how you feel
Trouble – people, systems, rules, etc.

Paul warns us, Anyone who runs ahead and does not continue in the teaching of Christ does not have God; whoever continues in the teaching has both the Father and the Son. 2 John 1:9

So it is extremely important to walk with Christ and to continue to follow all of His commands. Today is a good day to consider where you are at in following Christ’s will for your life, and what keeps you from being where He wants you.

Be wise today and always – follow Christ every day.
