Paul the apostle had an unwavering consecration to Jesus Christ. As a heaven-bound pilgrim, he was not “ashamed of the testimony

From the moment of his conversion, his mind was fixed on heaven. Therefore, he surrendered his heart, soul, mind, body, life, time and treasure to the lordship of Christ without any reservation. God’s grace in his life produced a dramatic change and made him a new creature in Jesus Christ.The transformation in his life was visible for everyone to see. His old associates witnessed the unarguable change of heart, spirit, soul, character, life and pursuit.

The Apostle desired the same spiritual state, standing and commitment for Timothy, his son in the faith, and, by extension, contemporary believers. His experiences, pursuit, dedication and perseverance are exactly what he wants for us. As heaven-bound pilgrims, we should not be ashamed of following and suffering for Christ. Rather, we should preach the gospel with unwavering commitment.

However, grace is not a licence to live in sin. No one can claim to have the grace of God without transformation. Therefore, those who think they can live the way they wish and continue with their licentious, promiscuous and fraudulent lifestyles because grace abounds, deceive themselves. “For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world.

In the family, school, office or marketplace, we must ensure that we do not “frustrate the grace of God” in our lives. In order not to “fail of the grace of God,” we must diligently watch over our lives and not allow any form of sin. Besides, we must display humility in our character, behaviour, disposition, attitude and interaction with others because “God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.
