Unity in the Body of Christ
I therefore, a prisoner for the Lord, urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called,
(Ephesians 4:1 ESV)
What is a worthy call or a call that is worthy?
It is none when the Lord called you. A king call you, what is the response? Surely I will heed or ohh I must have done something not right and dare not take the heed.
I somewhat belong to the later. I felt at times that I am filled with sins, not worthy and dare not..
What Christ through grace make us worthy., in context, Eph 4 , Paul therefore urge us or implore us. Therefore we are ready, we are worth, so that Paul implored us to walk in the manner that is worthy of the call.
I am made worthy because of Christ through grace and mercy and not what I did that the king may call me worthy.
Therefore, break the paradigm, I am worthy because Christ made me so. This I pray that I may go forward to the calling -
And he gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds and teachers, to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ,
(Ephesians 4:11-12 ESV)
What then am I called to? I will put across Acts 20:28 Pay attention, take heed to your self. I have been in the neglect of my spiritual self.
Obvious, the flock that is under me is my family, and the students that I interact with in school. Naturally I am made a minister, an evangelist in my workplace. The ministry will come and I will serve the Lord in capacity that I can offered, such as Sunday school and cell.
Of yes, a prayer that the Lord will lead my family to a cell that all of us will be able to growth and more importantly be part of a body of Christ.
