WALK IN WISDOM Sunday
August 16, 2015
Text: Colossians 4:5, 6 Memory verse: v 5
Paul
reminds us of our responsibility to be wise in the way they acted toward those
who are not Christians. Paul observed that while the Christian fellowship does
(and should) make some allowances for the mistakes of its own, the world will
not. Christians’ behavior toward unbelievers should be above reproach. The
believers were not to hide from the world in a secret organization; instead,
they were to live in the world as a light (Matthew 5:14 – 16).
As
Christians, we should be wise in our contacts with non-Christians, making the
most of our opportunities to preach the Good News of salvation to them. What
opportunities do you have? Do you make good use of them? Your meeting with that
unbeliever may be his/her last opportunity to hear the word of God. Try and do
something today as you go forth into the world.
Food for Thought: Wisdom of God is the panacea for living a godly life
in this age of wickedness and evil
Prayer: God, give me the wisdom I need to live a godly life
in this generation.
