Scripture to ponder on :
““I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.”
John 15:5 NKJV
☘️🪴 *THE SURVIVAL OF THE BRANCH 🪴🌿
Beloved, for our survival in this world, the author and consumer of our faith has given us prophetic instructions for life before His ascension to keep us victorious in the world.
And the ignorance of these instructions means that some Christians live like a child in ecstasy in front of the window of a pastry shop, salivating in front of the cake on the display without knowing that they have a multimillionaire father who wants to offer it to them. Thus he becomes the easy prey of satan and his agents.
Knowing your identity means that you are a new creature. You have (spiritually) put on the nature of Christ. Can you imagine Jesus with cancer? A malaria or a flu, poor thing? A change took place in you when you accepted Christ in your life: the divine exchange (2 Corinthians 5:17 and 21).
You must no longer live on your own because the devil will fight you and destroy you. But if you submit your abilities to the Lord Jesus who triumphed over Satan, you will live above any challenge. Knowing your identity allows you to live not in a religious way (merits, efforts), useless (distractions, multiple desires) but to live as a child of light. The word is clear: "He who does not remain united with me is thrown out, like a twig, and he dries; the dry branches, we pick them up, we throw them into the fire and they burn." (John 15:6 ).
The Lord Jesus knowing that we will face difficulties in the world assured us of His continuous presence (John 16:33; Matthew 28:20 BFC). He sent us as ambassadors for His kingdom (2 Corinthians 5:20 ). Return today to the source because you are the branch of this tree planted in the temple of God.
Let's pray:
Lord Jesus ! I receive You and I believe in Your name. You are my savior and You made me a child of God. I died with Jesus . Now I live by Christ who lives in me and my life is hidden in God. Christ - Jesus is the vine and I am His branch. I receive my nutrition from Him in the name of Jesus! Amen_
Jesus’ beloved !
AMEN & AMEN 🙏🏾🙏🏾!!
