Becoming Christlike in our Spiritual Journey
Becoming Christlike in our spiritual journey requires us to set our hearts on things above, not on things on the earth (Colossians 3:2). The bible tells us that Christ came and gave us an example in that we should follow in His steps (1 Peter 2:21). Following an example that is less than the one Christ left us, in any area of life, is to follow an example that will yield results that are less than Christlike. If we have a mentor who showed us how to overcome, why would we strive to follow a lessor example?
Simple Reminders of who we are, what we have, and what we can do in Christ can empower us to overcome in virtually every area of life. Countless times in scripture we are commanded to remember. Remembering causes the current monsters we’re facing to shrink before our eyes.
Remembering that God is working in us, on us, around us and through us causes the believer to become bold as a lion. And remembering how our Heavenly Father has delivered us from situations and circumstances in our lives that at one point looked bleak, strengthens us to endure present circumstances knowing that the God of deliverance still lives.
