To Live = Christ

Apr28

As I share some of my takeaways from the Priority Conference I attended this past weekend, I hope they will resonate with you also.

First Speaker:

Unity of the Church demonstrates the unity of Christ and the Father and us.

From my pride to pride in Christ.

– Who’s glory do I seek?
– Who’s “well done” am I looking for?
– Am I more concerned about being right or about representing truth, being Christ-like?
– Will the last argument I have matter when I stand before God? Does it make a difference in eternity?

🌹For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain.
Philippians 1:21 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/php.1.21.NASB1995

To live is Christ, to die is gain.
To live = Christ!

Beautiful Heritage

Apr25

Truly, truly, I say to you, he who receives whomever I send receives Me; and he who receives Me receives Him who sent Me.”
John 13:20 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/jhn.13.20.NASB1995

The Lord is the portion of my inheritance and my cup; You support my lot. The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places; Indeed, my heritage is beautiful to me.
Psalms 16:5-6 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.16.5-6.NASB1995

I will bless the Lord who has counseled me; Indeed, my mind instructs me in the night. I have set the Lord continually before me; Because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken. Therefore my heart is glad and my glory rejoices; My flesh also will dwell securely.
Psalms 16:7-9 NASB1995

This is the will of Him who sent Me, that of all that He has given Me I lose nothing, but raise it up on the last day. For this is the will of My Father, that everyone who beholds the Son and believes in Him will have eternal life, and I Myself will raise him up on the last day.”
John 6:39-40 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/jhn.6.39-40.NASB1995

Equipped To Do God’s Will

Apr24

Now the God of peace, who brought up from the dead the great Shepherd of the sheep through the blood of the eternal covenant, even Jesus our Lord,
equip you in every good thing to do His will, working in us that which is pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.
Hebrews 13:20-21 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/heb.13.20-21.NASB1995

God working in us to be pleasing in His sight! Are we surrendering to the equipping of ourselves for the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ?

Therefore, since we receive a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us show gratitude, by which we may offer to God an acceptable service with reverence and awe;
Hebrews 12:28 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/heb.12.28.NASB1995

Full Disclosure

Apr23

Jesus answered and said to him, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our abode with him. He who does not love Me does not keep My words; and the word which you hear is not Mine, but the Father’s who sent Me.
John 14:23-24 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/jhn.14.23-24.NASB1995

Is God abiding in you? Are you keeping, following, practicing His word?
“If you love Me, you will keep My commandments.
John 14:15 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/jhn.14.15.NASB1995

And this is love, that we walk according to His commandments. This is the commandment, just as you have heard from the beginning, that you should walk in it.
2 John 1:6 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/2jn.1.6.NASB1995

🌹He who has My commandments and keeps them is the one who loves Me; and he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and will disclose Myself to him.”
John 14:21 NASB1995

The Choice is Yours

Apr22

I (Jesus) have come as Light into the world, so that everyone who believes in Me will not remain in darkness. If anyone hears My sayings and does not keep them, I do not judge him; for I did not come to judge the world, but to save the world. He who rejects Me and does not receive My sayings, has one who judges him; the word I spoke is what will judge him at the last day.
John 12:46-48 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/jhn.12.46-48.NASB1995

Then Jesus again spoke to them, saying, “I am the Light of the world; he who follows Me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the Light of life.”
John 8:12 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/jhn.8.12.NASB1995

🌹Are you walking in the Light of Life . . . Or the Darkness?

All Will Bow; All Will Praise

Apr21

So, having obtained help from God, I stand to this day testifying both to small and great, stating nothing but what the Prophets and Moses said was going to take place; that the Christ was to suffer, and that by reason of His resurrection from the dead He would be the first to proclaim light both to the Jewish people and to the Gentiles.”
Acts 26:22-23 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/act.26.22-23.NASB1995

Salvation through the shed blood of Jesus is available to all who believe.

All the prosperous of the earth will eat and worship, All those who go down to the dust will bow before Him, Even he who cannot keep his soul alive.
Psalms 22:29 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.22.29.NASB1995

For it is written, “As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to Me, And every tongue shall give praise to God.” So then each one of us will give an account of himself to God.
Romans 14:11-12 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/rom.14.11-12.NASB1995

Are you ready to face the Almighty God, your Creator, and give an account of your life?

And He (Jesus) was saying to them, “You are from below, I am from above; you are of this world, I am not of this world. Therefore I said to you that you will die in your sins; for unless you believe that I am He, you will die in your sins.”
John 8:23-24 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/jhn.8.23-24.NASB1995

Now is the time, today, to seek forgiveness for your sin and follow in the footsteps of the Lord Jesus Christ.

My hope is that you can whole heartedly say:

🌹But I have trusted in Your lovingkindness; My heart shall rejoice in Your salvation. I will sing to the Lord, Because He has dealt bountifully with me.
Psalms 13:5-6 NASB1995
