Topic: Who is your role model?
Text: Hebrews 11
Key verse: Hebrews 11:39a
“These were all commended for their faith”
A role model is someone worthy of imitation.
Who is your role model? If you become exactly like that person you admire, will God celebrate you? Will your name appear among the heroes of faith today?
Hebrews 11 gives us a list of the heroes of faith, men, and women who did great things for their faith in God, Hebrews 11:39 says that these people were all commended for their faith.
Some of us make music/movie stars our role models, we admire their dressings, habits, and lifestyle, and we desire to be like them. Unfortunately, many of these celebrities live ungodly lives, they are involved in extramarital affairs, hard drugs, and other kinds of unrighteousness. The Bible tells us to flee from all kinds of unrighteousness, 2nd Corinthians 6:14-18 also stated that we should not be unequally yoked with unbelievers because their life cannot lead us into faith in God.
When choosing a role model, there are some things we must consider;
1. The person should be a child of God
2. Think of the good virtues you can learn from the person.
3. You must also prayerfully select your role models.
We should recognize these men and women of faith in Hebrews 11 and learn from them, you too can also be a Christian role models.
Prayer: ABBA father, give me insight when selecting my role models. Help me not to select wrongly. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen
