"JESUS CHRIST in You"
Every day that I wake each of you up, is a new day that is given unto you to crucify that old nature within and to put on CHRIST JESUS. It is a choice that one makes daily to choose to do or not do as far as living in CHRIST is concerned. Some might ask how do you go about crucifying yourself and putting on The Lord JESUS CHRIST? Well friends, first and foremost it begins with repentance and asking The Lord JESUS to cleanse and forgive you of your sins. Also, whenever possible, it should also include being baptized in the Name of The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit. After all of that, it takes a desire to want to know this JESUS CHRIST Who has cleansed and saved you from your sins. Now if you are truly sincere about your repentance, you will have been born again, not of the flesh, but rather of The Spirit. And if indeed you are serious, you will want to give up that old sinful life you were living and begin to desire to live for The Lord JESUS CHRIST.
So there you have it, My friends, it is not all that complicated, but The Lord JESUS truly does need to become The Most Important Person in your life. Every time that old sinful nature of yours tries to rear its ugly head, and it will, you have to put it to death through the power of The Lord JESUS CHRIST and The Holy Spirit. You are indeed at a disadvantage because you are a sinful creature by birth, but JESUS CHRIST and The Holy Spirit are working in you to help change and take away that sinful nature. No My beloved, your struggle will not be an easy one of course, especially since you have to live in a sinful world such as this. For you to live is Christ, and to die to self is gain, and powerful is the person who learns to listen to and obey the words of The Lord JESUS CHRIST. Be in CHRIST therefore and allow CHRIST to be in you, and blessed you will be for so doing, in His Holy and Most Precious Name.
AMEN
