SERVING YOUR FAMILY : Dcn Dominic Ichaba (Sunday May 15, 2022)

<p>Apostle Paul was writing about love, humility and serving one another. But a genuine &nbsp;or real encounter with Christ is the starting point of the life of service because it will &nbsp;change our status from sinners to children of God and joint heirs with Jesus with all &nbsp;the blessings.</p> <p>Your security and significance, your unimaginable self-worth is rooted in this &nbsp;encounter with Christ.</p> <p>An ongoing daily encounter with Christ is necessary; we learn to converse with God in &nbsp;prayer and in His word and relate with one another in fellowship. The Holy Spirit &nbsp;begins to transform us from inside out as we follow Christ and experience His love. It &nbsp;begins to affect how we relate to each other.</p> <p>Apostle Paul’s four questions in verse 1 show what God expects of those who have &nbsp;encountered Christ. What are your answers to them? Are you walking in love and unity, &nbsp;humbly serving one another in your home church, your spouse, children, parent, etc.?</p> <p>Are you desiring a change in your life, spouse, children, the family, etc.? Encounter &nbsp;Christ personally, definitely and progressively; pray that they may encounter Christ, etc.</p>
