Zealous love for God (Psalm 119:113-120)
When we think about commitment to Christ and to the kingdom we so often put it into a context of mediocrity and we see it around us and start to think that is the standard of zeal.

In this section the psalmist displays a zealous love and reverence for God! 3 Evidences of a Passionate love for God (1) Zealous Commitment (113-115) (2) Zealous Prayer (116-117) (3) Zealous Fear (118-120)

Slaves to a New Master (Romans 6:15-19)
Obedience is not required in order to be saved, but the law teaches us how to live as those who are saved. Formerly we were slaves to sin, and now we have been made slaves to righteousness. We have a new master -- and our responsibility involves putting off sin, resisting the temptation to return to our former master; and gladly serving our new master. The freedom that we have in Christ is not freedom from having a master, but it is freedom from sin's mastery over us. Christ is now our Lord and master, and it is good to belong to him.
