The Planted Seed

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

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

‭‭Staying connected to God is necessary for Him to increase, and for us to decrease.
John‬ ‭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

‭‭🌹For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain.

Speak The Gospel

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

Dead or Alive

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 NASB

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 the one who has died is freed from sin.
Romans 6:6‭-‬7 NASB

Now those who belong to Christ Jesus crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.
Galatians 5:24 NASB

But far be it from me to boast, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.
Galatians 6:14 NASB

🌹 If Christ is in you, though the body is dead because of sin, yet the spirit is alive because of righteousness.
Romans 8:10‭ NASB

Are you living in freedom from sin or are you still walking in the flesh with its passions and desires? Do you look like the world around you or like Christ?

Hope To Be

All I am
And hope to be
