ABOUT YOU AS A BELIEVER

FAITH CAPSULE: The conduct of a believer should be an evangelism to the world around such.

Psalm 50

Your conduct is your evangelism to the unbelievers.
The Psalmist states, “Whoever offers praise glorifies Me, And to him who orders his conduct aright I will show the salvation of God.” (Psalm 50:23) 
Conduct is a way of acting or behaving, a direct route to salvation for every acclaimed believer in the name of Jesus. 
Paul the apostle, in his sincerity, made a declaration when he stated, “For our boasting is this: the testimony of our conscience that we conducted ourselves in the world in simplicity and godly sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom but by the grace of God, and more abundantly toward you.”(2 Corinthians 1:12) 
At all times, the conduct of a believer should be what introduces one to the unknown ground. 
The confession as one for Christ should not be limited to having a church ground or carrying the Bible. 
As a believer who claims to have accepted Jesus as Lord and Savior, how do you act when you are in the company of believers or unbelievers? 
Do you act differently among non-believers? 
Can you identify the differences in your actions? 
Have you heard being told you are the Bible that they are reading? Christianity is not a religious act; it is a way of life. 
Conduct displayed behind closed doors should not be an embarrassment when conducted in the open. 
Year after year, month after month, day after day, one whose conduct has been “playing” religion, such is deceitful. 
Your religious “play acting” will only last for a while before the truth prevails. 
Do not be overtaken by sin because God sees all and does not overlook sin. 
1 Samuel 2:3 states, “For the LORD is the God of knowledge; and by Him, actions are weighed.”  
Every believer should weigh in the hand of God by good conduct. 
The weight of good conduct will determine how much could be assigned to carry in the assignment of God for the kingdom of heaven. 
The time for self-examination and sincerity before God is now. 
Are you a believer who knows to search yourself before God?
God will always be merciful to those who call upon Him. 
Paul said in Philippians 1:27, “Only let your conduct be worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of your affairs, that you stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel.” 
Your conduct is the testimony of your standing in the Lord. 
If your conduct is worthy of Christ, you will be steadfast in Him. 
Your conduct is your evangelism to the unbelievers around you who are yet to receive Jesus as their Lord and Savior. 
As the year goes by, let the word of God echo in your heart. 

Prayer for today: Ask God to work in you both to do His will and to do it for His glory.
