EXHORTATION through the BOOK of LIFE
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 🌿
Many 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. This is the case with those (Christians) who do not know their identity in Christ. It is essential for you to know your identity otherwise you will serve as breakfast, lunch and dinner to the devil 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? A change occurred in you when you accepted Christ into your life. From now on any disease in your body must be rejected by your words. Remember that the old you is dead, the new one is here. You have been made a new creature to manifest the glory of God in the world.
You can't do it by your own means because the devil will fight you and destroy you. But if you take your abilities in 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: “If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned.”
John 15:6 NKJV.
The Lord Jesus knowing that we will face difficulties in the world assured us of His continuous presence (John 16:33; Matthew 28:20 ). 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: Serd 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 You. 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 pull nutrients from Him for all that I need for my body and in life in the name of Jesus! Amen
Jesus' beloved ,
