The contrast between Christian and non-Christian, for some in the world today, has become quite blurred because there are professing Christians who, in God’s eyes, are stained from and smell like the polluted garbage of the world. With a mask on, they appear to be the model Christian, but beyond the disguise, they disobey God, lie, covet what’s not theirs, and sadly practice other fruits of the flesh.
God reminded Samuel the prophet (see 1 Sam. 16:7) that our inner qualities – our character traits – mean far more to Him than “outward appearances.” Why” Because your character drives your destiny.
If you really want the character of Jesus and want to live out God’s purpose for your life, you must:
- Allow the Holy Spirit to expose your ungodly weaknesses
- Shed your hypocrisy (i.e. stop pretending to be someone you’re not)
Please accept this personal challenge to join me on this journey as we boldly:
- Seek to remove any mask you may be wearing
- Come to the altar of repentance before God
- Learn to live as the “real deal” before a generation that needs you.
