The Fourth Command of Christ

Let Your Light Shine

"Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven"

(Matthew 5:14-16 KJV)

Memorization and Meditation

Personal Application for Command 4

Our Light and Glory- Exodus 13:21; Isaiah 60:19

Light of the World- John 8:12; John 1:9

Examining My Heart

• What good works am I doing to show Christ's light?
• How have I displayed generosity?
• How have I shown others that I am grateful?
• Have I hindered my light by murmuring?
• Does my life contrast with those in the world?
• What darkness do I need to remove from my life?
• Have I forgiven offenders so that I am not in darkness?
• Do I spend time in God's presence so that I can reflect His glory?
• Does God get the glory for the good works I do?

Developing Character

Generosity vs. Stinginess

Generosity is demonstrating the nature of God by

wisely reinvesting the resources that He has entrusted to us.

O MY WORD!!! THIS IS GOING TO BE ME!!! Lord Help! xD

FINALLY! The Third Command of Christ!

Rejoice

"Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you"

(Matthew 5:11-12 KJV)

Memorization and Meditation

1 Peter 4:12-14, 1 Thessalonians 5:16-19 2

Corinthians 12:9, Philippians 4:4,6

Praying the Names of God

Jehovah-Nissi: The Lord Your Banner

-Exodus 17:8-16; Deuteronomy 20:4

Jesus Christ Is Our Life

-John 14:6; John 10:10

Examining My Heart

• Do I see trials as God's means of bringing me to spiritual maturity?
• Have I found Scriptures to strengthen me in trials?
• How have I overcome reviling with good works?
• Have I thanked God for trials and persecution?
• Do I keep my eyes on eternity when trials come into my life?
• Am I willing to join in the sufferings of Christ?
• Have I identified benefits in the trials I am facing?
• What qualities are my trials building in me?

Developing Character

Joyfulness vs. Self-Pity

Joyfulness is the bright spirit and radiant countenance that come by being in full fellowship with the Lord.

A Gift From God!

Psa_6:9 The LORD has heard my plea; the LORD accepts my prayer.


I have been praying for a new violin so I could teach my siblings better, and perhaps give myself an upgrade. Well after about two weeks the man that we are renting our house from said his daughter (who is grown) had a violin and hasn't played it in years. He called her and asked her about it and handed mom the phone. Mom wanted to buy it but his daughter said
"I was never able to play that thing anyway and obviously you guys will put it to use and so there is no reason why ya'll shouldn't just have it!" :O

Psa_66:19 But truly God has listened; he has attended to the voice of my prayer.

I was sooo excited!
It's a Stradivarius copy, made in Germany in the 1940's.
(when it comes to violins German made is the best) so it's a nice violin and
it has a beautiful tone. Sooo I got an upgrade and can now teach my siblings much better!
God is so good!



I LOVE IT!
