Living an Exemplary life : continuation with Rev Wafula

Today’s message is a continuation on love on the topic Living an Exemplary life. Paul urged Timothy to be a good example through speech, love, faith, life and purity. Love; when you love there is nothing you cannot do for those you love. Jacob loved Rachel and had to work for seven years to earn her. But he was given Leah instead of Rachel since Leah was the eldest. He had to work for another seven years to get Rachel because he loved her. The love we have between us and God is the covenant love ( an agreement between two people that cannot be broken. There is a seal in this case the blood of Jesus) 1kings 8:23 2chronicles 6:6-14' Nehemiah 1; 32. God keeps His covenant to a thousand generations. There is also covenant love between brethren. Romans 13:8-10 Paul says owes nobody a debt except the debt of love. We owe each other a debt of love. God expects us to love everyone as He loved us. Romans 13. Paul writes and says be an example in life. Live the life that others can see Christ in you because you are a representative of Christ Jesus. Live and speaks that those who don't know God will come to know God because of you. Let your life be a challenge to the rest. We can purpose to live lives to are exemplary so that the world will copy from us and not us copying from the world. As a person what are your values, what can people look at and define your by. Can they say this is a faithful or sincere person? Your values will determine your life. If you say I will be a man of integrity that means what you say and do in private is what you say and do in public. Maintain integrity wherever you are and whatever you do. Philippians 1:20-24,27 . Come what may, we must leave for Christ Paul dies for the values he had in Christ. What values do we have? Are they exalting Jesus Christ? What is your purpose in life, what do you want to fulfill? What is it that can stand out in you to be a testimony in Christ? Many of us live a purposeless life, that's why you find people moving up and down. Many Christians have nothing to achieve. When it is all done and finished, what will you present to God? What do you have that you can present if Jesus came? What shall we lack from you when you are gone? Someone says the greatest tragedy is life without a purpose. You live for 20 years and gone, we try to trace what you did other than your family and you. God has a purpose for each one of us. God told Jeremiah I chose you while in your mother’s womb and have a pointed you be a prophet die.

Acts 26:19 Paul says he received a vision from heaven and given his purpose in life. What are you living for? Your life must be challenging to others...........Romans 9:11' Philippians 2:2. God bless
