Paul was serious Paul had a Holy Spirit-driven life perspective Matthew 6:33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Romans 1:1 (NASB) Paul, a bond-servant of Christ Jesus, called as an apostle, set apart for the gospel of God. Ephesians 4:1 As a prisoner for the Lord, then, I urge you to live a life worthy of the calling you have received.

Paul was serious Paul was fully committed 1 Corinthians 9:24-27 24 Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize. 25 Everyone who competes in the games goes into strict training. They do it to get a crown that will not last; but we do it to get a crown that will last forever. 26 Therefore I do not run like a man running aimlessly; I do not fight like a man beating the air. 27 No, I beat my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize.

Paul was serious Paul continually examined himself Paul risked all for others Paul did not covet what someone had Philippians 4:12-13 (MSG) I’m just as happy with little as with much, with much as with little. I’ve found the recipe for being happy whether full or hungry, hands full or hands empty. Whatever I have, wherever I am, I can make it through anything in the One who makes me who I am.

Paul was serious Paul continually examined himself Paul risked all for others Paul did not covet what others had Paul worked hard Matthew 11:28-30 28 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”

We too are being compelled by the Holy Spirit to be serious! Paul was serious Paul continually examined himself Paul risked all for others Paul did not covet what others had Paul worked hard We too are being compelled by the Holy Spirit to be serious!
