“Felix, thank you so much for sharing with me the gospel last week,” Matilda penned down as she chatted with Felix, “I don't seem to want to smoke like I used to. The addiction is gone! I just felt like telling you this.”
“That's what Jesus does in all of us, Matilda,” Felix replied. “Go on and tell someone else what Jesus has done in you.”
A Christian is a peculiar person who's always eager to do good works. He doesn't try or struggle to do good because doing good is his nature. An unbeliever has a different nature as the Bible says (John 8:44). You see, a man can only be like his father. As a Christian, your Father is the great God of glory, the Father of the Lord Jesus Christ. He's good and His works are good (Psalm 119:68), and you're just like Him for you're His child. Jesus said, “...The Son can do nothing of Himself, but what He sees the Father do; for whatever He does, the Son also does in like manner” (John 5:19) and in Acts 10:38, the Bible says, “How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him.”
When God recreated you in Christ Jesus, He formed you for good works and called you to live the good life which He pre-arranged for you (Ephesians 2:10 AMPC). Now you can bless the world because you have the nature of your Father in you. Make up your mind to display the glorious nature of your heavenly Father to everyone you meet today.
Prayer
I've been ordained to do good works. As I go about doing good today, my life is filled with God's goodness and grace in Jesus' Name. Amen.
