SUMMONS TO JOY AND FREEDOM
I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord,
appeal to and beg you to walk worthy
of the divine calling to which you have
been called (with behavior that is a
credit to the summons to God’s service.
(Ephesians 4.1).
POINTS FOR PRAISE
AND MEDITATION
1) St. Paul considers himself the prisoner
of the Lord. This is not to indicate lack
of freedom. On the contrary our freedom
is God’s freedom. We enter into God’s
freedom. Where the Spirit of the Lord is
there is freedom.
2)This in essence is the summons to
joy and freedom.
3)St. Paul is set in His course for His life
thoroughly committed to God’s way.
4) God’s way of life is His lifestyle, to
live a life worthy of the divine calling to
which we have been called, to His glory,
not seeking our own, but seeking His way
of life.
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS!
