Today our sermon at church was over holiness  and being truly devoted to God

Our country is divided into 2 parts Sacred and Secular                                                              the sacred includes Church, Mission Trips, Bible Study, VBS, Small Group, Praise and worship Secular  includes Sports, shopping, taking a cart to the place, driving (anything our of church basically fits into this group.     Some people think that God doesn't care about secular, sure he does he wants us to be like him in everything we do.   Everything we do and say is a reflection on our relationship with Jesus.  

Holiness is very hard 

 Here are some scriptures given   James 5:15-18, 1Peter 3:7, Leviticus 20:26, Leviticus 19:2 1Peter 1:15-19, Matthew 5:48, Ecclesiastes 12:13  the posted scriptures below are from the NIV

James 5:15-18 

15 And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise them up. If they have sinned, they will be forgiven. 

16 Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective. 

17 Elijah was a human being, even as we are. He prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the land for three and a half years. 

18 Again he prayed, and the heavens gave rain, and the earth produced its crops.

1Peter 3:7 7 Husbands, in the same way be considerate as you live with your wives, and treat them with respect as the weaker partner and as heirs with you of the gracious gift of life, so that nothing will hinder your prayers.

Leviticus 20:26 26 You are to be holy to me because I, the LORD, am holy, and I have set you apart from the nations to be my own.

Leviticus 19:2 2 “Speak to the entire assembly of Israel and say to them: ‘Be holy because I, the LORD your God, am holy.

1 Peter 1:15-19 

15 But just as he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do; 

16 for it is written: “Be holy, because I am holy.” 

17 Since you call on a Father who judges each person’s work impartially, live out your time as foreigners here in reverent fear. 

18 For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your ancestors, 

19 but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect.

Matthew 5:48  48 Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.

Ecclesiastes 12:13 13 Now all has been heard; here is the conclusion of the matter: Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the duty of all mankind.

Does Jesus shine through everything that you do?  have a blessed week. Take everything to him in prayer
