1 John 2:6
Whoever claims to live in him must live as Jesus did.
No matter where we are in life, no matter what season we are
in, no matter what circumstances surround us, we must choose to live our lives
as Jesus did. We must have the attitude
of Christ in all things.
Jesus was willing to leave His seat of glory in heaven in
order to come to earth and fulfill the plan of the Father for His life. He humbled Himself by giving up His heavenly
stature and taking on the form of a man.
He willingly accepted all the scorn, all the mockery and all the
suffering, even unto death. He always
put the interest of others first. He
told us Himself that, “For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but
to serve and to give His life as a ransom for many.” Mark 10:45
We must ask ourselves with what attitude do we approach all
things in life. These things demand
serious self-examination; and earnest prayer, so that God will show us what we
are, and whether we are truly living as Jesus did.
Prayer
Heavenly Father, we thank You for sending us Your Son as the
perfect model for our lives. We exalt
the name of Jesus who was the only man who ever led a life that was without
sin. We lift our hands in praise and
worship as we bow before Our Savior with a grateful heart. We pray, Father, that You will show us how to
live the Kingdom life on earth like Jesus did.
We ask that the Holy Spirit lead us to live our lives with the attitude
of Christ. May we be humble, gentle and
obedient in all things as He was. We ask
all these things in the name of spotless Lamb of God, Jesus Christ.
