Making wise choices February 2016

Making wise choices  The presence of God  The existence of God  The character of God  The nature of God  The living word of God  Our adoption into son-ship and into the family of God  Justification by faith  Sanctification - being made holy and set apart.

Making wise choices  He made you in His likeness and image. “What is man, that Thou dost take thought of him? And the son of man that Thou dost care for him? Yet you made him a little lower than God, and dost crown him with glory and majesty!” (Psalm 8v4-5)

Making wise choices  God had a plan for your life before you were born. Psalm 139 v 13, “For Thou didst form my inward parts: Thou didst weave me in my mother’s womb”. God said to Jeremiah, “Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you, and before you were born, I consecrated you” (Jer 1 v 5)..

Making wise choices  God made you for His good pleasure. Revelation 4 v11 says,” Worthy art Thou O Lord our God, to receive glory and honour and power; for Thou didst create all things, and because of Thy will they existed, and were created” – the AV says, - “And for Thy pleasure they were created”

Making wise choices  “Do not lie to one another, since you laid aside (or put off) the old self with its evil practices” (Col 3 v 9)  “In reference to your former manner of life, you lay aside (or put off) the old self which is being corrupted in accordance with the lusts of deceit” (Eph 4 v 22)  “Therefore, laying aside (or putting off) all falsehood, speak the truth…” (Eph 4 v 25)  “Let us therefore lay aside (or put off) the deeds of darkness and put on the armour of light” (Rom 13 v 12)

Making wise choices  “Let us lay aside (put off) every encumbrance and the sin which so easily entangles us…” (Heb 12 v 1)  “Putting aside all filthiness and all that remains of wickedness….” (James 1 v 21)  “Therefore, putting aside all malice and all guile and hypocrisy and envy and all slander…” (1Peter 2 v1)

Making wise choices  “ For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed (or put on) yourselves with Christ” (Gal 3 v 27)  “But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh….(Rom 13 v 14)  “..and have put on the new self who is being renewed to a true knowledge according to the image of the One who created him” (Col 3 v 10)  “and put on the new self, which in the likeness of God has been created in righteousness and holiness of the truth” (Eph 4 v 24)

Making wise choices  “Put on the full armour of God, that you may be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil” (Eph 6 v 11)  “….put on a heart of compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience” (Col 3 v 12)  “ And beyond all these things, put on love, which is the perfect bond of unity” (Col 3 v14)
