How Can We Do What Is Good

 DAILY DEVOTION MCZ MISSION DEPARTMENT

*Ephesians 2:10*

For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.

*HOW CAN WE DO WHAT IS GOOD*

When we invite Christ into our lives, God changes us completely. We still have our natural desires, of course, but now God’s Holy Spirit is present in our lives. The Holy Spirit makes us free so now we can do those things that please God. So, the Holy Spirit causes God’s people to live in a way that is good, right, and truly beautiful which speaks about the fruits of the Holy Spirit. Because of God’s work in their lives, God’s people can be kind and gentle, loyal and patient. They can show true love to other people. God fills their hearts with joy.

God does these wonderful things for his people, not just for their own benefit, but so that they can serve him. He wants them to do the work that He has prepared for them. He wants them to help other people and to show his love to those people. It brings great joy to Christians to see how God is using their life to help other people.

*PRAYER*

Dear God, help me to be the good as it pleases You. Amen.
