“HONOR CHRIST THE LORD AS HOLY!”

 1 Peter 3:13-17                   (ESV)

“[13] Now who is there to harm you if you are zealous for what is good? [14] But even if you should suffer for righteousness’ sake, you will be blessed. HAVE NO FEAR fear of them, NOR BE TROUBLED, [15] but in your hearts “HONOR CHRIST THE LORD AS HOLY”, always being PREPARED to make a defense TO ANYONE who asks you for a reason for the HOPE that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect, [16] having a good conscience, so that, when you are slandered, those who revile your good behavior in CHRIST may be put to shame. [17] For it is better to suffer for doing good, if that should be GOD’s WILL, than for doing evil.”

I’ve been sickly this week. therefore I haven’t been IN THE WORD as much as I would’ve loved to be.  But this is a verse that requires not much understanding or support.  “HONOR CHRIST THE LORD AS HOLY” is something that ALL should strive to do, regardless of who we are or what position we find ourselves in.  

FATHER IN HEAVEN, cause me to “HONOR CHRIST THE LORD AS HOLY” in everything I say or do!!!
