As Christians, our highest calling is to please the Lord. This call is for all those who have trusted in Christ, not just for those in ministry. In this sermon, Alistair Begg identifies four marks of a life focused on fulfilling this calling. When our lives are characterized by fruitfulness, an increased desire to know God, a continual strengthening by God, and a noticable thankfulness, we can know that we are living not for our ourselves but for the Lord.
9And so, rfrom the day we heard, swe have not ceased to pray for you, asking that tyou may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all uspiritual wisdom and understanding, 10so as vto walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, wfully pleasing to him: xbearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God; 11ybeing strengthened with all power, according to his glorious might, for zall endurance and patience awith joy; 12bgiving thanks4 to the Father, who has qualified you5 to share in cthe inheritance of the saints in light. 13He dhas delivered us from ethe domain of darkness and transferred us to fthe kingdom of ghis beloved Son, 14hin whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.
