SUNDAY SERMON ON THE BLOG – WALK THE WALK AND TALK THE TALK!

Join together in following my example, brothers and sisters, and just as you have us as a model, keep your eyes on those who live as we do. - Philippians 3:17.

Someone once said... “I would rather see a sermon any day, than hear one.”

I'm not distressed because people want to “see a sermon,” but because so many of us don't “practice what we preach.”

As leaders, whether as friends, parents, or in positions of authority, our principal tool of influence, is our life of character (or lack of it). Do you practice what you “preach?” All of us who seek to influence others MUST!

Why? Because most people need to both hear and see the message, before it becomes a part of them.

Loving Father, forgive me for not being a visual sermon. Help me by the power of the Holy Spirit, to walk the walk, and talk the talk. Equip me, and make me fit for your service. I know I can't do any of those without your power and grace transforming my life. In the wonderful Name of Jesus I pray. Amen.

Be encouraged!
