LOOK:

Q: How are we to live in light of this text?

• Take off all your envies, jealousies, unforgiveness, selfishness and fears.” We can’t be effective in our ministry to share the gospel if we have these emotional entanglements.
• Let’s ask ourselves if we’re considering buying, building or doing something that might potentially end up as a heavy burden and hamstring God’s work of ministry in our lives?
• Christians must center their affections on Christ, not on the temporal things of this earth. Material riches lose their value when compared to the riches of glory.
• By joining Jesus, we learn a way of life that does not acquire things or amass possessions but responds to God and develops relationships. We invest our energy in people.
• We’re not using this power and authority to advance the kingdom of God. We’re too complacent, comfortable. It’s time to walk in the power of the Holy Spirit every day.
