Living By Faith

Jan19

What does it look like if I am crucified with Christ and I no longer live but Christ lives in me?

I live by faith. The one who is righteous by faith shall live.
Galatians 1:17; Romans 3:11

Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.
Hebrews 11:1 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/heb.11.1.NASB1995

And without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him.
Hebrews 11:6 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/heb.11.6.NASB1995

🌹For in hope we have been saved, but hope that is seen is not hope; for who hopes for what he already sees?
Romans 8:24 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/rom.8.24.NASB1995

How am I living differently than the world because of my faith in Jesus Christ who lives in me?

Portrait 4, A Crucified Life

Jan13

I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me.
Galatians 2:20 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/gal.2.20.NASB1995

Now those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.
Galatians 5:24 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/gal.5.24.NASB1995

knowing this, that our old self was crucified with Him, in order that our body of sin might be done away with, so that we would no longer be slaves to sin;
for he who has died is freed (acquitted) from sin.
Romans 6:6-7 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/rom.6.6-7.NASB1995

If Christ is in you, though the body is dead because of sin, yet the spirit is alive because of righteousness.
Romans 8:10 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/rom.8.10.NASB1995

For the death that He (Jesus) died, He died to sin once for all; but the life that He lives, He lives to God. Even so consider yourselves to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus.
Romans 6:10-11 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/rom.6.10-11.NASB1995

Just as the Father has loved Me, I have also loved you; abide in My love.
John 15:9 NASB1995

Jesus’s prayer for His disciples:
🙏“O righteous Father, although the world has not known You, yet I have known You; and these have known that You sent Me; and I have made Your name known to them, and will make it known, so that the love with which You loved Me may be in them, and I in them.”
John 17:25-26 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/jhn.17.25-26.NASB1995

The Planted Seed

Jan30

Truly, truly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit. John‬ ‭12:24‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/jhn.12.24.NASB1995‭‭

Just as the grain of wheat must die to bear more fruit, so we as believers must die to bear eternal fruit. Die to MY way, MY will, MY life.

Now those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.
Galatians‬ ‭5:24‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/gal.5.24.NASB1995

The Christian has been crucified with Christ and now lives in Christ. It is HIS way, HIS will, HIS life, His passion.

He who loves his life loses it, and he who hates his life in this world will keep it to life eternal. John‬ ‭12:25‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/jhn.12.25.NASB1995

‭‭Staying connected to God is necessary for Him to increase, and for us to decrease.
John‬ ‭3:30‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/jhn.3.30.NASB1995

Prayer and the Word of God are essential to a life in Christ!!
‭‭
And the one on whom seed was sown on the good soil, this is the man who hears the word and understands it; who indeed bears fruit and brings forth, some a hundredfold, some sixty, and some thirty.”
Matthew‬ ‭13:23‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100 /mat.13.23.NASB1995

‭‭🌹For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain.
Philippians‬ ‭1:21‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬

Speak The Gospel

Aug1

So then, when the Lord Jesus had spoken to them, He was received up into heaven and sat down at the right hand of God.
Mark 16:19 NASB

Jesus had been crucified. Jesus arose from the dead. Jesus sent His disciples out, but not alone. . .

And they went out and preached everywhere, while the Lord worked with them, and confirmed the word by the signs that followed.] [And they promptly reported all these instructions to Peter and his companions. And after that, Jesus Himself sent out through them from east to west the sacred and imperishable proclamation of eternal salvation.]
Mark 16:20 NASB

The disciples went out preaching everywhere, while the Lord worked with them.
Jesus sent out through them the sacred and imperishable proclamation of eternal salvation.
Did you catch that? Jesus worked with them sending out the proclamation of eternal salvation through them!

We are not alone when we share the gospel. Jesus is with us, working, through the Holy Spirit residing in us. Let us be bold in sharing the gospel.

🌹And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.
Mark 16:15 NASB
