Going deeper...to go further

This month we’re using the daily Bible reading plan to do a Spiritual MOT as we prepare for the journey ahead. Often times it is easy for us to focus on the "paint job" of outward appearances, but God looks directly at the engine room of the heart (1 Samuel 16:7). 2 Corinthians 13:5 calls us to examine ourselves to ensure our faith is genuine and active.

The reading plan starts with a couple days of preparation, followed by four weeks of honest reflection before the Lord. Each day, as we read the Scripture, we need to as ask the Holy Spirit: "Is this an area where I need you to help me work on?" If so, what does that change look like in your life? This isn't meant to bring condemnation; it's a beautiful opportunity for calibration and getting right with God.

Our prayer response: "Lord, examine me. Search my heart. Reveal anything that hinders my walk with You. Repair what is broken, realign what has drifted, remove what does not belong, and fill me afresh with Your Spirit. Make me a trustworthy vessel, ready for Kingdom purpose and faithful until the day I stand before You. Amen."

Spiritual MOT: Warning lights & road-readiness

Am I becoming a vessel God can trust and use?

2 Timothy 2:20-26

20Now in a house there are not only gold and silver objects but also utensils made of wood and pottery. Some things are for special purposes, others are for common use.21If anyone cleanses himself of whatever produces evil he will be fit for special use that will honour the master, for he is devoted to him and is prepared to do anything good his master asks of him.22Timothy, run from the evil desires of youth and run after righteousness, faith, love and peace, together with all the other believers who pray to the Lord with clean hearts.23Refuse to have anything to do with foolish and ignorant disputes, knowing they only promote quarrels.24And the Lord's servant should not be involved in such quarrels, but should be gentle in his dealings with everyone.25He shall be able to teach others, to be patient with them, to bring correction sensitively to those who oppose him, trusting that the Lord will work in them, causing them to repent and come to a full acceptance of the truth.26Then they will escape the devil's trap that captures people, causing them to do his will.

1 Peter 1:13-16

13Because you have now received this revelation, you need to have mindsets of those who are ready for action and will be self-controlled in their way of life. You have already received grace from God, so your hope for the future is that this grace will be given to you fully when Jesus Christ returns.Be holy in all you do14You are called to be God's obedient children and not to give way to the evil desires that marked your lives when you lived in ignorance of His purposes.15He who called you is holy; so to please Him you are to be holy in all you do, living as one who knows his or her life is set apart for God's purposes and glory.16To live such a life fulfils God's written command: "Be holy, because I am holy."
