Happy New Week everyone,
To live a perfect life is only
found when you walk with God, however, there are sacrifices you have to make,
but they are sacrifices you’ll be grateful to God you made eventually. Romans
8:28 says, “And we know that all things
work together for the good to those who love God, to those who are the called
according to His purpose.” So,
who are those who love God, because that seems to be the criterion for all
things to work together for good for you?
The truth is that you cannot
claim to love God because loving God really is becoming Him by not having any
life but Him, which we have as Sons of God. But what to love God really is to
receive His love first, for we never knew what love is till we received Jesus
into our heart and we then understood that love is a person and is the person
we received into our hearts. So, showing that you love God is to receive Him
into your heart or life, and this is also because it is by grace and not of
works to love God. So, if loving God had to come first from you, it would be of
works and not grace which we wouldn’t even attain.
Being called according to the
purpose of God has to do with receiving and walking with the Holy Spirit, who
reveals your purpose and guides your every path because He is the Spirit of
Truth and God. So, by receiving Jesus into your heart is loving God, and
walking with the Holy Spirit is being called according to the His purpose, this
is when all things work together for your good.
Romans 8:26 tells us how the Holy
Spirit intercedes on our behalf beyond our imagination, and Romans 8:27 tells
us how the Holy Spirit knowing what exactly to intercede for had searched our
heart and known how to present our request before Him according to His will. It
is there and then that all things then work for the good to those who love Him
and are called according to His purpose. It all boils down to walking closely
with Jesus Himself through the Holy Spirit, and even though He asks you to do
certain things which may appear as sacrificial, you would see that it all
turned out for your good and fulfilling the purpose of God.
May the LORD bless
you and keep you, make His face shine upon you. May the LORD be gracious to you
and lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace. AMEN.
Why not accept Jesus
today if you haven’t. Pray out loud, “Jesus,
I confess that You are my Lord and Saviour. I believe in my heart that God
raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank
You for saving me!” Congratulations,
you’re born again, you are now brand new!
