Ephesians 2:10

 10For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.


Since we are Christ's workmanship, what kind of “ART” are we showing to the world through our lifestyle?  Do our lives portray a LIVING ARTWORK painted by God?  Or probably the better and easier question is, in what ways can we show God's perfect creativity of workmanship in our lives?


(Pastor, did I ask the right question/s? Nerd)

We could never attain the standard of behavior presented in the Scriptures. But we can attain such a standard when we become God’s workmanship.  Hallelujah!!!!

It is God who works in us that we are able to present ourselves brightly to the world. 

Yes, our lives ought to be an artwork that shows the perfection of God.

 

From the very beginning God already ordained us to become like Him.  We are a new creation in Christ to bring forth good works, which is righteous behavior in our lives. 

And this is not because of our own doing but because of what Christ has done.

This is us: a new creature based on God's love and mercy that is being presented on us through our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ

 

Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you (John 15:16).

 

This is God's workmanship: a perfect scenario of a tree surrounded by rivers of flowing water that bears fruit all year round. 

That is what we should ought to be.  Manifesting the fruit and gifts of the Holy Spirit into our lives.

Fruit of the Holy Spirit   —- Galatians 5:22-23

Gifts of the Holy Spirit   —-  I Corinthians 12

 

If we fail to live according to the artwork designed/painted by God then it's time to come back to Him.  He is calling our name and always ready to restore His creation into a beautiful work of art once again.

 

Thank You Lord!Laugh

Yes, praise God!  In my devotions today, it reminded me again about God's love (what we talked about last night in LCU!) Oh man, it's so awesome.  God is really amazing.
