My Influence – your Lion Bites word for today

Heed the Lord’s ‘pep-talk’ to you today as He pulls you up from a place of spiritual mediocrity and puts you on a platform for your true potential to be unleashed. Be uncompromising in your pursuit of righteous and bold Christianity. It is time to repent, be refined and to shine.

And He says to you, ‘I desire to be your influencer. I desire for you to model yourself on me and not on the world. Be shaped and clothed by my Spirit, not by the spirits of the age.’

This is a time for denial of self and of a deliberate decision to not take part in all that the world offers. Make a daily choice to let go of all that is mediocre and instead pursue God’s very best for you. Allow the Holy Spirit to influence you and every part of your life and you will become truly rich.

Revelation 3:15-19
I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other! So, because you are lukewarm—neither hot nor cold—I am about to spit you out of my mouth. You say, ‘I am rich; I have acquired wealth and do not need a thing.’ But you do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked. I counsel you to buy from me gold refined in the fire, so you can become rich; and white clothes to wear, so you can cover your shameful nakedness; and salve to put on your eyes, so you can see. Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline. So be earnest and repent.
