Hebrews 12:28 • 1 min. read • grade level: 4

HEB 12:28²⁸Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear: (Hebrews 12:28)

Let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear.

Heb. 12:28²⁸Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear: (Hebrews 12:28)

Acceptable service is doing God’s work God’s way. To dream up your own work and then say that you’re working for the Lord is not the Lord’s work at all. Spend time in prayer asking the Lord what He wants you to do for Him. It may not be what you expected - but you’ll get a reward for it if it’s done in reverence and godly fear.

EXAMPLE

1TI 4:12¹²Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity. (1 Timothy 4:12)

Be thou an example of the believers . . . in purity.

1 Tim. 4:12¹²Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity. (1 Timothy 4:12)

BEWARE young Christian! God EXPECTS you to be pure! Turn away from everything that is immoral, impure, indecent. Keep yourself pure.
