We shouldn't be satisfied with our current walk with the Lord. We must continually strive to imitate Jesus.
In volume 2 of Belief That Behaves, Dr. David Jeremiah continues to walk us through Ephesians, encouraging us to emulate Jesus as Paul did. The apostle Paul wrote to the church in Ephesus, detailing God’s blessings for believers and encouraging them to make the most of their spiritual gifts. Through his letter, we learn how to imitate Jesus in all aspects of our life, from marriage to parenting, to the workplace. We can put on the spiritual armor God gives us and defend ourselves against the evil one, who seeks to deter us from following the path God has set for us.
What should a Christian look like? What should their lifestyle be like? These are questions that Paul answers in the concluding portion of Ephesians 4. And some might be surprised to know that his idea of a Christian lifestyle has nothing to do with financial wealth, physical health, or geographical location; it's about the ability to live with others in a virtuous and honorable way. Covers Ephesians 4:25-32.
Walking shows up in the Bible a lot. We're told to walk in our faith, walk worthy of our calling—and in Ephesians 5:1-2, we are told to walk in love. In this message, Dr. David Jeremiah examines how we learn to walk in love by imitating God. Covers Ephesians 5:1-7.
When Paul says that we are to “walk as children of light,” he is reminding us that this light isn’t “our” light. It’s the light that comes from Almighty God. God is the true light. And we are to reflect that light to others. Covers Ephesians 5:8-14.
Wisdom is God giving us the ability to negotiate our lives when we don’t know what to do and when we have no precedent to make our decisions. Because we are living in unprecedented times, we need God's wisdom now more than ever. In this message, Dr. David Jeremiah looks to the book of Ephesians for insight on what a wise walk looks like. Covers Ephesians 5:15-21.
In Ephesians 5, Paul gives us some of the Bible’s most practical and important instruction about marriage. Join Dr. David Jeremiah as he breaks down Paul's instructions to husbands and wives on maintaining a godly union. Covers Ephesians 5:22-33.
When we are filled with the Holy Spirit and allow the Spirit of God to control our lives, we are impacted in many different, incredible ways. A vital part of a Spirit-filled life is children obeying their parents and parents not provoking their children to anger. Learn more in this message from Dr. David Jeremiah. Covers Ephesians 6:1-4.
It's easy to think that a Spirit-filled life is only suitable at home or in church. But the Holy Spirit comes to work with us too, and He does amazing things through us and for us even in the stress, strain, grit and grind of the workplace. In this message, Dr. David Jeremiah discusses how to honor God in our jobs. Covers Ephesians 6:5-9.
As we strive to yield our lives to the control of the Holy Spirit, it is important for us to know that there is an adversary among us who would do anything to sever our connection to God. Satan is determined to hinder God's image in us and continue his brutal assault on our hearts. Thankfully, the Lord has provided us with impenetrable armor to withstand the attacks of the enemy. Covers Ephesians 6:10-17.
As believers, we are all fighting a spiritual battle. And if we try to fight in our own strength, we will always be defeated. Prayer keeps us in constant touch with our Great Commander, Jesus Christ. It engages us God in our conflict and allows Him to take over with His unsurpassing strength. Covers Ephesians 6:18.
