Spiritual Stability: Part 4

Continuing through our Spiritual Stability series, Pastor Lance picks up in Philippians 4:8-9. He reiterates the importance of meditating on the things of God; whatever is good, lovely, pure. What we learn from His Word is how we ought to live. We must live out what we learn. The two are inseparable. Pastor Lance reflects on the seriousness of eternity, and how we should focus on living in a way that pleases God. Are you allowing the Holy Spirit to direct your steps each day, or are you following the desires of your flesh? When we walk in opposition to God, the way the world wants us to, there's no telling where we'll end up. In walking closely with the Lord, we make decisions based on what is right, not on what we feel. God has not called us to walk in an empty-headed way, but to walk in a manner worthy of His calling. Right thinking is a result of daily meditation on God's Word, Pastor Lance says, and we must actively pursue that time with Him!
