Speaker: Phil Hainaut

• Do you do all that you do to the best of your ability for God?

• Have you considered how God might use you in political structures through participation or prayer?

• Are you striving to be all that you can be for God regardless of your circumstances?

• Do you truly deserve to be promoted in life based on your faithful work ethic?

• Has your work ethic been consistent as you grow older?

• Could anyone accuse you of being corrupt or negligent rather than trustworthy before the government , your boss or your teacher?

• Could anyone find grounds to accuse you of living out God’s law in your life?

• How easily swayed are you by numbers, titles, and the right words?

• How vulnerable are you to flattery? • Do you tend to make impulsive decisions?• Do you have specific times, places, and postures

for daily prayer?• Is thankfulness always a theme of your prayers?• Are you a public Christian who takes risks so

others may know your God?• Is it your automatic reflex to ask God for help for

all issues of life? • Are your spiritual habits so visible to others that

they could use them against you?• Have you followed the world in viewing other

nationalities or lower income groups with hateful pride?

• Are you such a servant, friend and asset to those you work for that they would do anything to defend or keep you?

• Do you courageously risk to stand with the oppressed for justice?

• How conscious are you that you have a real enemy who is tirelessly trying to destroy you?

• How much are you willing to suffer in our love for God and testimony to the world?

• Could people around you everyday say you serve God continually?

• Do you ever do things for God in such a way that God has to show up?

• Do you believe that a faithful death is as powerful as a miraculous rescue?

• Is your soul distressed today because of the pain caused by your mistakes?

• Is your soul distressed today because God is hounding you through the testimony of others?

• Again, do people around you everyday recognize you as a continual servant of the living God?

• How many people will know God as the living God because of your life and death?

• Are you gracious with those who hurt you?• Do you faithfully tell others about all God’s rescues in

your life, and especially your salvation? • If you are seeking a temporal rescue, do you have

faith and a godly life?• Have you been rescued from your sin and from eternal

death and punishment by placing your faith in Christ? • Have you turned to Christ from a life of sin to escape

eternal punishment?• Do you ever find yourself believing that your sin hurts

only you? • Are you a faithful witness for God so that he can

reveal himself to others through you as the living, sovereign God who saves eternally?
