Praise to Our WORTHY Lord
“so that you will walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, to please Him in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God;”
Have you ever considered that because Christ paid for your sins you are worthy of heaven? Say that a few times to yourself and let it sink in. “I am worthy of the Lord! I am worthy of heaven!” To be found worthy is a heavenly gift. And now, because we are worthy, we’re reminded to walk in a manner worthy or “suitably” of our Lord. We may have a hazy understanding of what it means to be worthy, but we do know what it means to be suitable. A child who puts on dirty clothes for school is told to put on something suitable, something clean. In the same manner, we are to walk worthily (suitably) of the Lord.
Lord, thank You for making us worthy of Your presence and of heaven. Help us to walk worthily of You!
