THE BIBLICAL ROLE MODEL PART 1

Hebrews 12:2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

Hebrews 11:2 For by it the elders obtained a good report.


The bible and the world is full of role models; in fact we can say that the bible is a book of role models, so in case you are searching for a role model, stress yourself no more, you can just open your bible and choose one who has obtained a good report. Role model is someone who has good behaviour and has an outstanding result that is worthy of emulation. We are all here on earth to play a role in the world created by God, our heavenly Father; and to play our role in a way acceptable by Him we need someone to look up to. The first role model was Adam but he lost his bearing by allowing himself to be corrupted by Satan but God in His mercy sent His only begotten son Jesus Christ to be our perfect role model. Anyone that accepts Jesus Christ as their Lord and saviour has authentically asked him to be their role model. So, Jesus Christ is our perfect role model ordained by God but everyone has the right to choose who they want as their role model. He is the only role model with a complete package and following him is a guarantee that you will make it back to heaven after you are done playing your role here on earth. Don´t be deceived, you can still play your role here on earth and yet not make it to heaven because of misplaced priority. If you did not follow the number one God approved role model for you, you will end up in hell because your choice of role model will determine where you will end up at the end of your journey here on earth. Jesus Christ is our complete package, we are complete in him; if you follow his footstep you will have no need for any other role model. That means if we follow his footstep we will not only complete our assignment here on earth but we will also make heaven.

Colossians 2:8 (Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. 9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. 10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power):

Everything you desire is in Christ, he is the head of principality and power, so stop chasing after the shadow and go for the real image. Stop admiring wrong things, let not your mind be corrupted, don´t be stuck in the Adamic role model because it has been corrupted. The choice of role model is a conscious decision made by an individual; you have to define what you want out of life and then choose who you want to be your role model. Have it in mind that your number one role model is Christ; He has the complete Spirit that you need to succeed in life and He gave to everyone accordingly based on the assignment. Isaiah 11:1 (And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots: 2 And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD); He also said that if you allow him to be your role model that you will command greater exploit than you have seen in him. John 14:12 (Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father).  The question everyone should be asking him or herself is, who is my role model? Who am I following? And what am I gaining from following this person? My prayer for everyone reading this message is that you will not make the wrong choice, in Jesus name. Friends, you can't go wrong by making Jesus Christ your role model; he is the only one that can give you power to become like him and fulfil your God's given destiny (John 1:12).  He is waiting to accept your request , please hurry up by praying this salvation prayer below and be blessed in Jesus name.


Lord Jesus, I come to you today, I am a sinner, and I cannot help myself, forgive me my sins, and cleanse me with your precious blood. Deliver me from sin and Satan to serve the living God. Lord Jesus, I accept you as my Lord and saviour. Now I know I am Born Again, Amen.

NENE ISAH,
