For I know the thoughts and plans that I have
for you, says the Lord, thoughts and plans for
welfare and peace and not for evil, to give you
a future and a hope.
(Jeremiah 29 .11).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
MARRIED
Husbands, love your wives,
as Christ loved the church
and gave Himself up for her,
So that he might sanctify her,
having cleansed her by the
washing of water with the Word,
That He might present the church
to Himself in glorious splendor,
without spot or wrinkle or any such
things (that she might be holy, perfect).
Even so husbands, should love their
wives as (being in a sense), their own
bodies.
(Ephesians5.25-28).
YOUR NEW LIFE
We were buried with Him by the baptism
into death, so that just as Christ was raised
from the dead by the glorious power of
the Father, so we too might live and behave
in newness of life.
For if we have become one with Him by
sharing a death like His, we shall also be
one with Him in sharing His resurrection
by a new life lived for God.
We know that our old self was nailed to the cross
with Him in order that our body which is
the instrument of sin might be made
ineffective and inactive for evil, that we
no longer be slaves of sin.
For when a person dies, he or she is freed
from the power of sin.
Now if we have died with Christ, we believe
that we shall also live with Him.
( Romans 6.4-8).
Consider and pray about the following:
1) We are no longer the same person we had
been before baptism.
2) Our motivations, thoughts and actions are
now being transformed to be conformed to
the motivations, thoughts and actions of
Jesus Christ.
3) Our perspective of the world, people and
events are shaped by the Holy Spirit to be
in line with His perspective.
4) The life we live is led by the Holy Spirit.
5) We are not in charge of our life.
Jesus Christ is the Leader of our life.
6) We are no longer constrained by the
physical limits of human power and
abilities.
7) The power at work in us is the same
power which raised Jesus from the dead.
