Topic: Because you Believe
Text: 1 Samuel 25:1-3
Abigail believed God and that was why she was a woman of good understanding. You are good when you believe in God.
Romans 3:20 tells us that by the deeds of man, none will be justified. Morality will never save you ….your goodness can never save you before God. We are children of God by faith in Christ Jesus and that makes us good.
James 1:17 tells us that good ness comes from God but we are justified by the grace and goodness of God. Despite this, we must maintain good works for it is good to be good.
Abigail believed in the Lord God and she became a woman of good understanding. Patience brings forth understanding because there is the process of time. Understanding is dynamic and never static.
Forgiveness is learned through Christ and it is an everyday experience. The conflict that arise in the process of time give patience. Because you believe in God, love, forgiveness, and patience will naturally follow.
The woman with the alabaster box, Mary, sister of Lazarus, did what made her deed to be a memorial where ever the word of God is preached. She did what she did because she believed.
To enhance your believe, you must forgive, tolerate and forebear. Temptations, trials and conflicts will arise…..prepare to go through and overcome. You can overcome because you believe!
