“Be imitators of God in everything you do, for then you will represent your Father as his beloved sons and daughters. And continue to walk surrendered to the extravagant love of Christ, for he surrendered his life as a sacrifice for us. His great love for us was pleasing to God, like an aroma of adoration—a sweet healing fragrance.” –Ephesians 5:1-2 TPT
True religion confronts earth with heaven and brings eternity to bear upon time. The messenger of Christ, though he speaks from God, must also, as the Quakers used to say, “speak to the condition” of his hearers; otherwise he will speak a language known only to himself. His message must be not only timeless but timely. He must speak to his own generation. —A. W. Tozer
Everyone is not at the same place spiritually in their walk with the Lord. Some people are ready for fresh revelation, while others need the milk of the Word depending upon where they are in their walk with the Lord. And that’s okay! The truth is we all should be following God’s example during this time. imitating God in everything we do. When we do this we will represent God as his beloved sons and daughters.
As we continue to walk surrendered to the extravagant love of Christ, for he surrendered his life as a sacrifice for us. His great love for us was pleasing to God, like an aroma of adoration—a sweet healing fragrance, we will glorify Him in the earth.
