Ephesians 5
How to live a life worthy of God’s calling?
Be imitators of God and live a life of love, of light, and of wisdom.
Which part of Ephesians 5 inspires you the most?
-
Walking in Love: We need to love as Christ loved us and not to involve in immorality. Think of ways that you could live a life of love, first starting with your family members, then your Christian brothers and sisters, your coworkers, and so on.
-
Walking in Light: We are to “wake up” (v.14), to live as children of light, and to find out what pleases the Lord (vv.8-10). Have you been slumbering spiritually? What needs to be done in order to ensure your spiritual alertness? What are some of the things that you could start doing to please the Lord?
-
Walking in Wisdom: We are to make the most of every opportunity (v.16), to understand the Lord’s will (v.17), and to be filled with [controlled by] the Holy Spirit (v.18). Be mindful to yield to the leading of the Holy Spirit and be sensitive to the various opportunities that God has put in your life.
-
Wisdom in Marriage: Wives should submit to their husbands as to the Lord, and husbands should love their wives as Christ loved the church. Pay attention to your marital relationship. Be wise, and grab hold of every opportunity to love and to cherish each other.
