Titus 3:8- This is a faithful saying, and these things I will that thou affirm constantly, that they which have believed in God might be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable unto men.
Octane to Maintain!
*we are fuelled to maintain good works through…
1. Revelation!
*by…
a. Exhortation
b. Edification
c. Thought of Eternity!
2. Remembrance!
Titus 3:3-6– For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.
4 But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared,
5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;
6 Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour;
3. Repentance!
4. Running!
Heb. 12:1- Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,
Note: if you don’t burn off fuel, it breaks down!
5. Revival!
If we fail to maintain good works, our effort is in vain! May God guide us and inspire us with the “octane to maintain!”
