DEAR FRIENDS

Dear friends, I urge you, as aliens and strangers in the world, to abstain from sinful desires,

which war against your soul. Live such good lives among the pagans that, though they accuse

you of doing wrong, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day He visits us.

(I. Peter 2.11 & 12).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

DO NOT

Do not love the  world or anything in the world.

If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father

is not in him. For everything in the world- the

cravings of the sinful man, the lust of his eyes and

the boasting of what he has and does- comes not

from the Father but from the world. The world

and its desires pass away, but the man who does

the will of the Father lives forever.

(I. John 2.15-17).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

Spirit of Life

Therefore, brothers and sisters,

we are debtors- not to the flesh,

to live according to the flesh.

For if you live according to the

flesh you will die. But if through

the power of the Holy Spirit you

are habitually putting to death

the evil deeds prompted by the

carnal nature, you will live.

( Romans 8.12 and 13).

INSPIRATION FOR MEDITATION

Meditate on these points:

1) The carnal sinful nature leads

to sin and death.

2) The Holy Spirit leads us to right

standing with God and guides us

to right thinking and actions

3) The Holy Spirit is in eternal

communion with the Eternal Father

and the Eternal Son.

4)The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of life.

MADE NEW IN THE SPIRIT

MADE NEW IN THE SPIRIT

For when we were in the flesh,

the sinful passions which were

awakened by the Law were at

work in our members bore

fruit to death.

But now we have been discharged

from the Law, having died to

what we were held by,

so that we should serve in the

newness of the Spirit

and not in the oldness

of the letter.

( Romans 7.5 and 6).

Consider these:

1) Before being reborn of the Spirit,

obeying the letter of the Law was

the order of the day.

2) After your Spiritual rebirth you

can live in new freedom to obey

 our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ

by yielding to the promptings

of the Holy Spirit.

3) Daily … Continue Reading
