That I May Know Him

Phil 3:10 that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death

ResurrectionTo know Him, is the primary pursuit of our life. Paul realized that the only thing that counted was knowing the Lord Jesus and following after Him.

To know the power of His resurrection is to know the Holy Spirit. Rom 8:11 But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.

As we pursue knowing the Lord Jesus, and the Holy Spirit and His mission in our lives, all that we have received when we were raised from the dead with Jesus begins to manifest in and through our lives.  We begin to lay hold of that which Christ Jesus has bought and paid for us in His death, burial and resurrection.

Let us continually give thanks for our Lord Jesus.
Phil 3:12 Not that I have already attained, or am already perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me.

Walk in Forgiveness

Ps 103:11-12
11 For as the heavens are high above the earth,
​​So great is His mercy toward those who fear Him;
12 ​​As far as the east is from the west,
​​So far has He removed our transgressions from us.

forgivenessAt times, believers become entangled in unforgiveness and bitterness. This is poison to any person. Unforgiveness and bitterness is a main hindrance to our faith. It is like drinking poison to get back at someone for how they hurt you.  It’s foolish to believe that your unforgiveness will hurt someone else and not affect you.

There is good news, God has given us grace and made us righteous. Now we can deal with people according to who we are and not according to what they said or what they did to us. We, the body of Christ, are love, mercy and forgiveness at all times. We can walk in forgiveness. We can cancel the debt, we do not have to allow unforgiveness to destroy relationships God has brought into our lives to bless us.

Father, in the Name of Jesus, thank you, you have made me a new creation in Christ Jesus. Because I am a new creation, from this day forth, I deal with every relationship in my life according to who I am and not according to anyone’s mistakes, wrong doings or sin. From this day forth I have the grace to make peace in every relationship in my life as much as it depends on me. Amen.

I am not Ashamed of the Gospel

gospel

ROMANS 1: 16 – 17
FOR I AM NOT ASHAMED OF THE GOSPEL, FOR IT IS THE POWER OF GOD TO SALVATION FOR EVERYONE WHO BELIEVES, FOR THE JEW FIRST AND ALSO THE GREEK. FOR IN THE GOSPEL THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD IS REVEALED FROM FAITH TO FAITH; AS IT IS WRITTEN, “THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH.”

After hearing God’s Word concerning what is right for life, have you questioned or been frustrated because total health, freedom from financial worry has not taken hold of your life. {3 JOHN 2} A mountain of worry or concern just seems immovable. You know your children are not walking in God’s best for their life. Seeking God’s purpose for your life has eluded you. Confusion is the order of the day rather than God’s order for your day. It’s just NOT RIGHT. It’s just not God’s will for my life or your life.. His will is righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.

There was a time in my life when I thought that I had to do my best to make what was wrong, right. I had to try harder to make things right. I had to improve myself. Maybe more education, do more for the family or serve the Lord more. Then things will be made right. One day the Lord showed me that in the Gospel His righteousness is revealed. The victory our Lord Jesus won on the cross made all things right in the lives of those who believe.

Every relationship in my life has been made right by Jesus. His death and resurrection released the power of Almighty God into every area  of my life and your life to make it right or to line up with the will of God. Now receive God’s righteousness {His power and ability to make our life right with Him} into our lives. Let’s stop trying to do it ourselves and release our faith in the Gospel which says the Lord Jesus has made any area of our life which is wrong or out of order, RIGHT. Would you join with me today in thanking God that He has restored our health, Every relationship, made everything right in our past, present and future.

John, your fellow brother in the Lord
