SAVVY
How well does this statement describe you? “As a savvy follower of Jesus, I discern God’s voice and follow His lead at the right time and in the right way.”
The word savvy may not be used very often, but its meaning makes it the perfect word to describe how followers of Jesus live Spirit-led lives. The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines savvy as “having or showing perception, comprehension, or shrewdness, especially in practical matters.” In other words, wise, thoughtful, and sensible in everyday moments.
Jesus prepared his followers to go into a world that would reject them, hate them, and persecute them. In every circumstance, Christians must live righteous and wise lives. We are neither doormats to be walked on nor bulldozers who run over opponents. We neither force our own way nor shy from His ways. The goal is not self-preservation. The goal is to bring God’s Kingdom of light and love to a dark world. How do we do that? Jesus shows us the way. To be spiritually savvy comes from having the perspective of God on the inside– and then allowing Him to shape what happens through us on the outside. Jesus led a savvy life, and He invites us to do likewise.
Ask Yourself:
-How often do you pause to pray or even consider God’s purpose and leading in your daily living?
-What might change in your life if you were to become a savvy follower of Jesus?
-What decision are you facing right now that requires God’s unique perspective, and how will you seek Him?
Pause to Pray: Ask the Spirit to open your mind, heart, and eyes to His work and His ways in your life today.
Take a Next Step: Do you know a savvy follower of Jesus? Invite them to share a cup of coffee and ask them what role prayer, Bible reading, fasting, and other spiritual disciplines play in their day-to-day life. If you can’t think of someone, ask a pastor at your local church.
