    Hebrews 10:24-25, "Let us consider how we might spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together."

    Think

    In the Christian life, there are three basic principles God wants us to follow for the church to thrive as he intended it to! It's all about supporting the testimony of the church. We can support the testimony of the church by: 1. Attending Faithfully 2. Living a Godly Life 3. Giving Regularly Attending Faithfully is crucial for the life of every Christ-follower. No matter our circumstances, committing to be at church every Sunday shows the love we have for God and his house. Living a Godly Life should be our top priority. We can do this by obeying God's Word through daily prayer, church attendance, acts of service and total surrender to God in all aspects of our lives. Lastly, Giving Regularly to the church isn't an option, but a commandment. Everything we have belongs to God and tithing regularly shows our trust in Him. We will never experience the blessed life God wants us to have if we don't support the church financially. Ministry requires money from members to reach the masses for Jesus! What are you doing to support the testimony of the church?

    Act

    How are you doing in each of the three principles above? Consider what things you may need to let go of if anything is hindering you from obeying God's commands.

    Pray

    Dear God, thank you for the wisdom of your Word and for providing the body of Christ with a road map of how to live in accordance with you. Help me to be obedient to your commands and work through me to support the testimony of the church. In Jesus' name, Amen.
