Joyful Habits Christians Should Possess

By Mark Sanders


People who give their lives to Christ enjoy tremendous benefits. According to them, peace and total satisfaction can be derived. There are many joyful habits that these worshipers exhibit as they carry out God's plan. Most of these habits have been outlined here to encourage you to imbibe them.

They do not neglect the constant practice of giving generously to those in need at regular intervals. They share their personal belongings with people and believe strongly that because it is an instruction from God, more blessings and special favor will be attracted to them. These possessions may be in the form of sowing seeds to people who may need it, good clothes, money, free scholarships and other special gifts to them.

Another lifestyle practiced by every true worshiper of Christ is the constant reading and obedience to God's word and an active prayer life. Most of them enjoy going to sacred places and mountains to pour out their hearts to their creator and also learn the ways of God by reading the scriptures. They opine that in order to strengthen their faith, they must consecrate themselves in these places of worship.

Evangelism is another effective tool that believers use to strengthen their faith and spiritual growth. To some, it is a task that must be carried out in order to save the unbelievers from eternal damnation. The pastors and leaders of the churches lay much emphasis on the importance of spreading the gospel to different parts of the world. Most of them conduct special programs that are geared towards promoting gospel outreaches and other special events that will draw people closer to God.

Elders and teachers act as counselors to the children in the ministry. Most times, these young people visit them on regular occasions to learn how to behave well in their homes and the society. They also learn the principles and values of the community and form certain habits that are expected of them in their various schools and organizations.

Talented singers practice day and night in order to develop new songs and praises that would be used to edify the souls of brethren during church services and other weekly activities. These Christians get inspirations from God on how to form new melodies that will encourage other members. At regular intervals, they form groups and act as gospel messengers and facilitators of various activities that are carried out in the church.

Christians enjoy staying with one another, rather than forming associations with unbelievers. They are fully aware of the destructive influences that may occur when they stay together with bad friends. Issues such as "How to practice a godly lifestyle", "The importance of togetherness among brethren" and other vital ones are treated. The strong believers among them adopt many strategies such as follow-up routine and indoor meetings in order to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of their members and hence, work towards ensuring that they do not become discouraged and give up as a result of the pressures of life.

Regular visits are made to people who need special care. Special occasions such as Christmas and others can be periods when the orphans and the motherless babies are visited. On these occasions, these less privileged people are reminded of God's love towards them and are also encouraged to continue trusting Him.
