Choosing to Live Differently
1) Make rejoicing a priority. (vs. 4)
Joy Killers:
- Complaining (Philippians 2:14)
- Bitterness (Hebrews 12:15)
- Current situations
2) Choose the gentle approach. (vs. 5)
3) Replace worry with prayer. (vs. 6)
- Prayer changes things, but most importantly, it changes you. If it concerns you, it concerns God - so let Him do the worrying and you do the praying.
4) Don't forget to be thankful. (vs. 6)
- Being thankful makes God happy.
5) Peace brings joy and contentment. (vs. 7)
- Nothing in the world feels better than knowing you are right with God and that He is taking care of you.
6) Think on these thing. (vs. 8) (Psalm 73:2-3)
7) Put into practice what you have learned. (vs. 9)
- God's peace = joy (Proverbs 11:25b)
- We need to realize that our joy is not because of any circumstances, but is because of a relationship with the Creator of this world and everything in it and His Son, Jesus Christ.
