Alive in Righteousness

Apr21

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

Whose righteousness? Not my own, for I have no righteousness of my own. The righteousness of Christ in me is my righteousness.

But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.
Romans 8:11 NASB1995

🌹Hallelujah

The name of the Lord is a strong tower; The righteous runs into it and is safe.

Christian Living

Apr9

For not one of us lives for himself, and not one dies for himself;
Romans 14:7 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/rom.14.7.NASB1995

and He (Jesus) died for all, so that they who live might no longer live for themselves, but for Him who died and rose again on their behalf.
2 Corinthians 5:15 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/2co.5.15.NASB1995

Jesus sacrificed His life for us, Christian. Have we sacrificed our life for God’s purpose? Have we sacrificed our will for His will? Have we sacrificed our way to follow His way?

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

🙏Lord God, I surrender my life to You for Your purpose. Your will. Your way. Help me to walk in Your Light that others may also submit to You for their salvation and the salvation of others. In the glorious name of Jesus I pray, amen.

It Is Finished

Apr3

“I am the good shepherd; the good shepherd lays down His life for the sheep.

For this reason the Father loves Me, because I lay down My life so that I may take it again. No one has taken it away from Me, but I lay it down on My own initiative. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it up again. This commandment I received from My Father.”
John 10:11, 17-18 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/jhn.10.13-18.NASB1995

🌹Therefore when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, “It is finished!” And He bowed His head and gave up His spirit.

Walk In The Spirit – Joy (1)

Jan21

But the fruit of the Spirit is joy
Galatians 5:22 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/gal.5.22.NASB1995

Walking with God. Being in His Word. Talking to Him all day long. Leaning on His everlasting arms. Trusting Him on good days and bad days. The assurance of His salvation, of eternity spent with Him. That is tasting the fullness of joy! That is the Fruit of the Spirit living in you.

🌹You will make known to me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; In Your right hand there are pleasures forever.
Psalms 16:11 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.16.11.NASB1995

Born of God

Oct22

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

Are you born of and walking in Christ?

Prioritizing God

Oct7

I have set the Lord continually before me; Because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken.
Psalms 16:8 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.16.8.NASB1995

Where have you set God in your life? Is He a continuous thought on your mind? Is King Jesus sitting on the throne of your heart? Are you surrendering to His rule? Are you assured, not shaken, as David was?

Jesus is calling.

When You said, “Seek My face,” my heart said to You, “Your face, O Lord, I shall seek.”
Psalms 27:8 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.27.8.NASB1995

Can you truthfully say,

. . . I am continually with You; You have taken hold of my right hand.
Psalms 73:23 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.73.23.NASB1995

I hope you know Jesus and can trustingly say,

Therefore my heart is glad and my glory rejoices; My flesh also will dwell securely.

A Disciple of Jesus

Oct1

“Enter through the narrow gate; . . .
Matthew 7:13a NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/mat.7.13.NASB1995

Who is able to enter and what does that look like?

• Those who avoid temptation. Matthew 6:13
• To be delivered from evil (or the evil one). Matthew 6:13*
*Jesus prayed to the Father that He keep His disciples from the evil one. John 17:15
• Forgiving others as God has forgiven you. Matthew 6:15
• Being a devoted servant of God. Matthew 6:24
• Trusting God with your needs so you can serve Him. Matthew 6:25
• Seeking first the kingdom of God and His righteousness. Matthew 6:33

A difficult, or should I say, an impossible list to uphold without a relationship with Jesus Christ.

🌹For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it.
Matthew 7:14 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/mat.7.14.NASB1995

🙏 Lord, I pray today for the one who is struggling in their walk. God, open their eyes to their need of a personal, intimate, daily walk on the narrow path so that one day they will see the narrow gate that leads to eternity with You. Help them in their struggles and bring along side others who will help strengthen and navigate the straight and narrow way to You. In the name of Jesus and for His glory, amen.

God Alone, No Other

Sep15

You alone are the Lord.
You have made the heavens,
The heaven of heavens with all their host,
The earth and all that is on it,
The seas and all that is in them.
You give life to all of them
And the heavenly host bows down before You.
Nehemiah 9:6 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/neh.9.6.NASB1995

For by Him (Jesus) all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things have been created through Him and for Him.
He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together.
He is also head of the body, the church; and He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that He Himself will come to have first place in everything.
Colossians 1:16-18 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/col.1.16-18.NASB1995

Is God first place in your life? In your decisions, your choices, your routines, your everything?

🌹Know therefore today, and take it to your heart, that the Lord, He is God in heaven above and on the earth below; there is no other.

Praise God For Life

I will give thanks to You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Wonderful are Your works, And my soul knows it very well.
Psalms 139:14 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.139.14.NASB1995

What a wonder the human body is.
Is your life a life of praise for the gift you are?

🌹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
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.40.5.NASB1995

How blessed is the man who has made the Lord his trust, And has not turned to the proud, nor to those who lapse into falsehood.
