Embracing what God does for you is the best thing you can do for him. Don’t become so well-adjusted to your culture that you fit into it without even thinking. Instead, fix your attention on God. You’ll be changed from the inside out. Readily recognize what he wants from you, and quickly respond to it.Romans 12:2
If we want to live life to the fullest, the key is in right believing. Believe right and you will live right. The opposite is also true. Believe wrong and you will live wrong.
Some people have the wrong view of Christianity. Christianity is not about behaviour modification. Behaviour modification is what I call religion – trusting in your ability to bring about change, but constantly failing. Thinking if I just try harder, work harder, sacrifice more, then I will be able to satisfy and please God.
But God says, “No. It’s not about being more disciplined.” Not that being disciplined is bad for you, but it’s about an inward heart transformation. So start addressing the root. What are you believing about God? Make sure you get hold of good teachings that are full of God’s grace that reveal His righteousness that comes by faith in Jesus.
When you believe right, your outward behaviour will come in line with His Word and you will begin to be transformed into His image from glory to glory.(2 Corinthians 3:18).
So, think about God’s grace towards you and how you are made right by Jesus’ finished work on the cross. You will produce the fruits of righteousness and reign in life.
