ZEALOUS FOR GOOD WORKS

In Jesus Christ we have salvation and we have hope. That’s great news! In this letter to Titus, what are some of the effects on the lives of believers who know this good news? Being “zealous” for good works is much different than being zealous for a cause. In God’s Kingdom, mercy, compassion, and righteousness compel Christ’s followers to love and serve just as Jesus did. This can only be done well when we submit to God’s will and allow the power of the Holy Spirit to work through us.

Ask Yourself:

-What has Jesus’ sacrifice meant for your life?

-What kinds of things are you zealous for?

Pause to Pray for the Church: Pray for the whole Church to be zealous for God’s good work in this world.

Take a Next Step into Christian community: Ask a friend, family member, or mentor to hold you accountable to take a step toward God this week. Consider a daily prayer time, signing up to serve locally, or another “good work.”
