The Word of God to Me/Rashea@LL02 Academy
The Word of God is for us all, but every individual that decides to follow Jesus must establish and build a personal relationship with Jesus for themselves. We are the body of Christ. The body of Christ possesses many members (individual people) within the nucleus of Christ on the earth. However, every born again Christian must have a relationship with Jesus for themselves.
We do have corporate times where we come together and fellowship with others, but with the busyness of life, we are all often pulled in the direction of our individual purposes and spaces.
Those times of individuality should be filled with a life with Jesus. No... I am not saying you have to read your Bible all day long,🤣... but your day should consist of some level of devotion to build and to strengthen your walk with Jesus. This empowers the Person, presence, power and nature of Jesus to personally become real to you.
We must trust who and what Jesus is for ourselves. The Apostle Paul said in Romans 8... I am fully persuaded for myself. That means that Jesus became personally real to Him and worth living for lifelong.
Are you fully persuaded? I remember reading that Scripture thinking... "Wow! Now that's devotion." Now I, myself, am fully persuaded. God is worth loving and living for lifelong.
Our personal relationship with Jesus, as our Lord and Savior, becomes an anchor that keeps us set to the life of Jesus in our daily lives. Daily we learn to follow Jesus. Daily we learn to surrender our life to His Will and to His greater cause. "Not my will, but Your will be done." This implies like Jesus, that the Father's will for us is greater and more sufficient than our own will or the will of others for us.
God's Word becomes expedient to us as we trust Him and build a solid relationship with Jesus through prayer, spending time in God's Word and applying the Scriptures to our daily lives. The Word of God becomes as a pantry. We go to it for daily ingredients to conquer the day.
Yes. God's Word becomes fuel for our day. Energizing us to go the distance and to stay on course.
God's Word is accountability, too. "Ah... too far. Ah... not enough. Now you know you can do better than that."😂🤣 Those are those days where you show up and say, "Hey. I"m here."😆 And we all have those days.
Those days where you just want to get through the day or just want the day to be over with already. Those days where you just want to press the reset button. Those days where you got just enough to give to get you over the finish line.
Who... I made it kind of days. Don't judge me kind of days. I wish you would kind of days.🤣. Trust me... No matter our personality type... we all have those days where our gestures say it all.😂.
Yeah. God's Word helps with those kinds of days and moments. Utilize It. It will help in those kinds of moments and on those kinds of days.
God's Word has helped me through SO much. It is an atlas of counsel and sound guidance. And when you listen to God speak through His Word... You and your life will be better for it lifelong.
God's Word is real. God's Word is eternal. God's Word is truth that keeps us in step with Jesus and brings us closer to Him daily.
