Thank you for joining us for our 5 days per week wisdom and legacy building podcast. This is Day 774 of our trek, and it is time for our segment called Meditation Monday. Taking time to relax, refocus, and reprioritize our lives is crucial in order to create a living legacy.
For some, it may just be a time alone for quiet reflection. Some may utilize structured meditation practices. In my life meditation includes reading and reflecting on God’s Word, and in prayer. It is a time to renew my mind, refocus on what is most important, and make sure that I am nurturing my soul, mind, and body.
Due to heavy travel and an activity-filled schedule for the next two weeks our Wisdom-Trek episodes will be shorter so that I can pre-record them. As we start this New Year, I thought it would be good to invest this time discovering God and His key attributes. Today’s attribute is…
Because God is holy…I will devote myself to Him in purity, worship, and service.
“Who is like you among the gods, O Lord–glorious in holiness, awesome in splendor, performing great wonders?” Exodus [15:11].
Our God is holy. His character is perfect in every way. His moral excellence is the absolute standard of integrity and ethical purity. God’s supreme holiness infinitely sets Him apart from His creation.
Rather than reflecting the opinions and attitudes of this broken world, you are to reflect the beauty of God’s holiness. In order to reflect God’s holiness, you must first be made holy. And you can be made holy only by placing your faith in Jesus Christ.
As the holiness of God works into the fabric of your being, you will become sensitive to sin and self-centeredness, learning to abhor it as God does. As your life is transformed, you will project the light of His holiness into the darkness of this world.
God’s holiness demands your devotion. Where is your heart? Holy living involves a daily decision to surrender to the lordship of Christ.
“But now you must be holy in everything you do, just as God who chose you is holy,” 1 Peter [1:15].
Tomorrow we will continue to discover...
