Christ in You & Me

Oct28

Test yourselves to see if you are in the faith; examine yourselves! Or do you not recognize this about yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you—unless indeed you fail the test?
2 Corinthians 13:5 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/2co.13.5.NASB1995

Christ in you. Christ in me.
Do we take advantage of this treasure living in us? Jesus Christ moving in us to sanctify, strengthen our faith, molding us into His image for His glory and His purpose? Do we walk daily in His way? In His truth? Is our life surrendered, sacrificed for His purpose?

Salvation, believing faith in Jesus Christ, is so much more than saying a prayer. It is a call to sacrifice our life for His purpose.

🌹And He summoned the crowd with His disciples, and said to them, “If anyone wishes to come after Me, he must deny himself, and take up his cross and follow Me.

The Rock! His work is perfect, For all His ways are just; A God of faithfulness and without injustice, Righteous and upright is He.
Deuteronomy 32:4 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/deu.32.4.NASB1995

🙏God, Your law is perfect, restoring the soul. You have worked wonders, plans formed long ago, with perfect faithfulness. You are the author and perfector of faith. Righteous are You, O Lord, and upright are Your judgments. The Mighty One has done great things for me; And holy is Your name. Amen.
Psalm 19:7/Isaiah 25:1/Hebrews 12:2/Psalms 119:137/Luke 1:49 NASB1995

🌹In the days of His flesh, He offered up both prayers and supplications with loud crying and tears to the One able to save Him from death, and He was heard because of His piety. Although He was a Son, He learned obedience from the things which He suffered. And having been made perfect, He became to all those who obey Him the source of eternal salvation,

Where Do We Seek Answers?

Oct23

“Thus says the Lord who made the earth, the Lord who formed it to establish it, the Lord is His name, ‘Call to Me and I will answer you, and I will tell you great and mighty things, which you do not know.’
Jeremiah 33:2-3 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/jer.33.2-3.NASB1995

Where is your first stop when you are seeking answers?

Is it the throne of grace where ‘THE GOD’ who has all the answers we could ever seek?

For we do not have a high priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but One who has been tempted in all things as we are, yet without sin. Therefore let us draw near with confidence to the throne of grace, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.
Hebrews 4:15-16 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/heb.4.15-16.NASB1995

You will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart.

Seek the Lord while He may be found; Call upon Him while He is near.

Born of God

Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and whoever loves the Father loves the child born of Him.
1 John 5:1 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/1jn.5.1.NASB1995

All things have come into being through Christ and apart from him, nothing came into being. By believing in Jesus, we are born of God. In Jesus is life. He is the Light of Mankind. Those who follow Him will not walk in darkness, but will have the Light of life.
John 1:3/John 1:4/John 8:12 NASB1995

Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love Me, for I proceeded forth and have come from God, for I have not even come on My own initiative, but He sent Me.
John 8:42 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/jhn.8.42.NASB1995

🌹but whoever keeps His word, in him the love of God has truly been perfected. By this we know that we are in Him: the one who says he abides in Him ought himself to walk in the same manner as He walked.
1 John 2:5-6 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/1jn.2.5-6.NASB1995

The Lord is My Banner

Oct20

The Amalekites and Israel are at war with one another. Joshua leads the Israelites into battle.
Moses, Aaron and Hur went up the hill overlooking the battlefield. Moses took the staff of God with him.
When Moses raised his hand up Israel prevailed. Eventually his hand grew heavy and the Amalekites would prevail. Moses grew weak so Aaron and Hur supported his hands. Working together, Moses’ hands were held up, the Israelites won the battle over the Amalekites.
Exodus 17:8-13

Moses built an altar and named it The Lord is My Banner;
Exodus 17:15 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/exo.17.15.NASB1995

🌹You have given a banner to those who fear You, That it may be displayed because of the truth. Selah.

The Lord is Good

Oct17

Shout joyfully to the Lord, all the earth.
Serve the Lord with gladness; Come before Him with joyful singing.

Lest we forget . . .

Know that the Lord Himself is God; It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves; We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.

Let us . . .

Enter His gates with thanksgiving And His courts with praise. Give thanks to Him, bless His name.

Why?

For the Lord is good; His lovingkindness is everlasting And His faithfulness to all generations.

The Nearness of God

Oct16

But as for me, the nearness of God is my good; I have made the Lord God my refuge, That I may tell of all Your works.
Psalms 73:28 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.73.28.NASB1995

🙏 God, You are my place of shelter, protection, and safety. You are my refuge. What have I to fear? I put my trust in You. Drawing near to You has been so, so good for me. ¹I draw near to hear Your instruction, heed Your word, trust in Your Word, and to be near to You, Lord God. Walking with You has opened my eyes to the wonder of You. I can’t help but speak of Your wonders. Use me Lord God for Your glory and purpose. I desire to speak of Your glorious work in me, a sinner saved by grace, for Your purpose and glory. Amen.

🙌 Many, O Lord my God, are the wonders which You have done, And Your thoughts toward us; There is none to compare with You. If I would declare and speak of them, They would be too numerous to count.
Psalms 40:5 NASB1995

Do You KNOW Him?

Oct15

Will you steal, murder, and commit adultery and swear falsely, and offer sacrifices to Baal and walk after other gods that you have not known, then come and stand before Me in this house, which is called by My name, and say, ‘We are delivered!’—that you may do all these abominations? Has this house, which is called by My name, become a den of robbers in your sight? Behold, I, even I, have seen it,” declares the Lord.
Jeremiah 7:9-11 NASB1995
