To become ‘Uncommon Christian in a contemporary world’, you
must first of all be converted and be washed from all sins – inwardly and
outwardly.
Uncommon Christians are those Christians who are always
connected to heaven at all time, they are people like Moses, Joshua, and Caleb.
At every point of their life there are connected to God to do His will.
Uncommon Christian is always conquering in any battle, he
will never be defeated in any battle. He is like David, he will never be afraid
of Goliath in any battle. He does not look at the outward appearance of the
enemy in the battle field.
He always look at the power of God who is greater
than the giants.
Obedience to God is very important if we will live an
uncommon life as Christians in this perverse and sinful world (Exodus 24:7; Job
36:11; Isaiah 1:19; Jeremiah 7:23; Acts 5:29; 1 Peter 1:14). Whatever you are
doing to God without obedience will amount to nothing.
The central characteristics of an uncommon Christian is
obedience, all other things are secondary.
1. Personal
obedience to the Lord: Personal obedience is the great thing that will open
door for you. Abraham was already 75 years old when God called him without
hesitation, he obeyed the voice of the Lord. That single act of obedience
changed his life and the seeds after him (Hebrews 11:8; Isaiah 51:1-2). David
made a personal prayer that he will always obey the voice of the Lord. In fact,
he told God that his heart is made up to obey Him at all time (Psalms 57:7;
Psalms 108:1; Psalms 119:30). That is the kind of obedience God demand and
desire from us at all times.
2. Prompt
obedience in His love: There are
many people who will obey but they will not obey promptly. Prompt obedience is
what counts. Psalms 119:6; Galatians
1:15-16. God is always happy when we obey him promptly swithout argument. God
is ready to lavish His blessing on those that obeys His voice.
If you failed to obey the call of God for your life, he will
immediately replace you with another person.
