Scripture
2 Corinthians 6: 3-4 “We try to live in such a way that no one will be hindered from finding the Lord by the way we act, and so no one can find fault with our ministry. In everything we do we try to show that we are true ministers of God. We patiently endure troubles and hardships and calamities of every kind.”
Observation
Paul’s main concern was reaching lost people for Christ. Paul lived his life for “one more.” He wanted to win one more for Jesus. He did not want his lifestyle to hinder anyone from being saved. So he patiently endured hard times, difficulties, troubles, difficult people, etc. He wanted his life to prove his ministry was Godly. Paul went the extra mile to be above board and beyond accusation. He lived his life and conducted his ministry with integrity.
Application
I want to follow Paul’s example. I want to conduct my life and ministry above reproach. I want to conduct my finances above reproach. I want to live in such a way that no one can point a finger at me. I want to conduct my ministry is a way that represents Christ well. I want to live for “one more.”
Prayer
May I reach “one more.” May I touch “one more.” May I bring healing to “one more.” May my life be a good representation of Jesus. Enable me to conduct my life and ministry above reproach. May I be blameless and no one can point a finger at me or the church.
