MFM Daily Devotional Message Friday, 12th September, 2025.

True followers of Christ have His character and lifestyle. Beloved, you are called to be like Christ. Your goal should be to become like Christ. If you genuinely strive to achieve this daily, your life will be a true reflection of the ambassador of God that you are supposed to be. How can your life reflect Christ to the world? What do you need to do to become like Christ? Here are some important tips for you:

First, you must live a life of self-crucifixion. That is, you must crucify the flesh and make self to die. Christ must increase and you must decrease daily. The flesh profits nothing, it is the Spirit that gives life. When you mortify the flesh and make self to die, you will begin to think as Christ does, speak as Christ does and act as Christ does. Sin will not have dominion over you and you will not find it difficult to do the will of the Father. What more, being like Christ will daily become a reality for you.

The second step you should take in order to become like Christ is to walk in the newness of life. You cannot become like Christ without first becoming a born again Christian. So you must give your life to Christ or repent and genuinely return to Him if you have backslidden. Only friends of God can truly become like Christ. Once you do this, you must ensure you walk in the newness of life you just received by grace. Let old things pass away indeed and let everything become new truly. Don' ever return to your vomit.

To become like Christ, you also have to endure persecution. Some of your close associates while you were in the world might condemn, reject, revile and victimize because of your decision to leave the world and follow Christ. Don't let that deter you or stop you from sticking to your journey with Christ. Blessed are you if you are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for yours is the kingdom of heaven (Matthew 5:10). Friends, relatives, neighbours and colleagues at work may revile and persecute you, endure the persecution.

I encourage you to make becoming like Christ a paramount pursuit for your life.
