In the same way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus. Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its evil desires. — Romans 6:11-12
If we have been cleansed from perversity, if we have died with Christ in baptism and have been cleansed thoroughly and completely by the Holy Spirit, then let's live for God! Let's resist sin, and our inclination to sin, with all our might, knowing that as we do, the Holy Spirit will empower us to a much greater righteousness than we could ever live on our own.
Let's begin each day with a conscious decision to be dead to our sinful past and alive to the goal of the holy character of God!
Is God’s will my will?
1 Thessalonians 4:3
For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you should abstain from sexual immorality;
The witness of the Spirit
Romans 8:16
The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God,
Is your Hope in God Faint and Dyeing?
Isaiah 26:3
Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace,
whose mind is stayed on thee:
because he trusteth in thee.
Questions in Job
37:15
Do you know when God dispatches them,
And causes the light of His cloud to shine?
37:16
Do you know how the clouds are balanced,
Those wondrous works of Him who is perfect in knowledge?
37:17
Why are your garments hot,
When He quiets the earth by the south wind?
