The
word intentional started my sermon series on intentionality. In a conference
last year, I encourage people to “be intentional” in their service to the Lord.
He always deserves our best. The word is defined as: Done on purpose, deliberate, calculated, intended, planned, willful,
knowing, meant, studied…
How do
you live your life? Is it with Intentional living, discipleship, and with a
purpose?
Or
Accidental? Stuff just happens and you are taking life as it comes?
Hopefully your heart and
mind say - BE INTENTIONAL!
Let’s
follow the Bible’s instructions on Intentional Living in Ephesians 5:15-16
– Be very careful, then, how you live—not
as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the
days are evil. Therefore, do not be foolish, but understand
what the Lord’s will is. Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery.
Instead, be filled with the Spirit, speaking to one another with psalms, hymns,
and songs from the Spirit. Sing and make music from your heart to the
Lord, always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name
of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Amen?
