Purchased

 --A Preacher's notebook--

….. With your blood you purchased men for God. Rev 8:9

To be:

•Powerful – All authority is given to you. There is power, wonder working power in the blood of the Lord Jesus. God equips us with power for the purpose.

•Undivided – You cannot serve God and mammon. Be of one mind. A double minded man will get nothing from God.

•Resourceful – If a man cleanses himself, he will be an instrument for noble purposes, made holy, useful to the Master and prepared to do any good work. 2 Tim 2:21

•Creativity – Be transformed by the renewing of the attitude of your mind.

•Humble – God lifts the humble. The created is never greater than the creator or the purchased than the purchaser.

•Available – Do not be too busy for God. He equips/uses the available.

•Specific – Do what you have been ordained to do, there is sufficient grace for your specific purpose.

•Effective – Be like a soldier who does not engage in civilian matters.

•Dutiful – Be faithful to your High calling. Be diligent. 

 'Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things.' 

Mat 25:21
