Let’s continue with what we started last week on the ‘ elements of the valued life‘. Knowing more about the valued life will help you live the valued life.
4. We live by faith the valued life. This new life only happens by faith, it is through faith that we are been made righteous and it is only through faith can we live a righteous life. It is through this same faith that we can walk with God and receive anything else from God. It’s only by faith can we live( Romans 1:17, 2 Corinthians 5:7). Without faith, we can’t please our God i.e. we can’t walk with him because we won’t be able to please him( Hebrews 11:6). It is very important that we build our faith each day in order to live the new life in Christ, which is the valued life.
5. The best way to live this life is through wisdom. Wisdom is a principal thing, get it at all cost( Proverbs 4:7). Proverbs 19:8 says the one who loves wisdom loves life… . If you want to live the valued life , you must be wise. Wisdom teaches us to fear God , walk uprightly and live well( Proverbs 2:1-9). To live the valued life you must seek wisdom. Ephesians 5:15 says, Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise.
6. The valued life is also a life of purpose. A person living the valued life also lives a life of purpose. Romans 8:28 says’ all things work together for good to them that love God and are called according to his purpose’. So whatever you are going through is all working out for God’s purpose. If you are living the valued life, it also mean you are living a purposeful life.
You have been called to live the valued life so walk consciously in it.
Stay blessed
