Being in the world but not of it is perhaps the Christian’s greatest challenge. But that is our calling, and the Holy Spirit indwells us for the precise reason of giving us the wisdom and power to live as God’s distinct people—redemptively different. And when we resolve to stand out for God, God will stand up for us!

“ But Daniel resolved not to defile himself with the royal food and wine, and he asked the chief official for permission not to defile himself this way. And God had caused the chief official to show favor and compassion to Daniel.

—LEVITICUS 10:3

A Simple Prayer for a Distinct Life:

God, make me different from the world. You have called me to come out from the unbelievers and be separate from them. You have also said that while I am in the world, I am not to be of it. That gets fuzzy for me sometimes, and because of the strong pull of this present age, it is always a hard thing. Please give me the boldness and resolve to be distinctly yours, and the wisdom to know when and how I should do that. Through the way I live my life, cause me to attract attention to you.
