GOOD EXAMPLES
1 Thessalonians 1:11 …we constantly pray for you, that our God… may fulfill every good purpose of yours and every act prompted by your faith.
Our God is looking today for pattern people, and when He gets a true sample, it is very easy to reproduce it in a thousand editions, and multiply it in other lives without limitation.
All the experiences of life come to us as tests, and as we meet them, our loving Father is watching with intense and jealous love to see us pass them well. If we fail, He is disappointed and our enemy is filled with joy. We are a watched continually by angels and principalities, and every step we take is critical and decisive for something in our eternal future.
When Abraham went forth that morning to Mount Moriah, it was an hour of solemn probation, and when he came back he was one of God’s tested men, with the stamp of His eternal approval. God could say that he knew Abraham and that He would fulfill the plan for his future. God did bring, in time, a son to Abraham and a Savior to us.
God is looking for good examples of faithful men today. May we be ones that respond to Him in faith and realize the plan He has purposed for each of our lives.
