1 Timothy 4:12 (KJV)
Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.
God's Word was given to us to build, train, instruct, and correct in the life and way of righteousness. Today’s verse is all about living an exemplary life and is so necessary, especially now, where moral lines are becoming blurrier.
Remember, we are in the deeper life phase. Choose to not be the Christian whose behaviour and lifestyle are questionable. Some people’s uncommendable behaviour could be in the way they treat other people, be it their family, staff, colleagues or even their superiors. Their character and behaviour aren't Christ-like. If your manner of life is inconsistent with the Word, make a change today.
Have pure desires and motives. Renew your mind with the Word, and be sure that your affections, choices, and decisions are in line with the Word. Be a true Christian, in heart and in action. Let others see Christ when they see you. Use the Word to check your actions, motives, thoughts, and desires. Do this, and you’ll experience the glory of God’s Spirit in your life as you should!
