Getting On the Same Page With Jesus

May 31, 2020

God wants us to constantly remember the ties that bind us together.  He wants us to remember the gospel, the good news of how we are united in Christ:  How we’ve received comfort from His love, how we’re all knit together by the Spirit, and how we’ve all been saved by God’s mercy.  Each of these experiences come from God alone and now we share these bonds so we can stand together as One.  But we also share these bonds so we might live in harmony as God’s people.

One of the best benefits of our new union in Christ is that each one of us has the potential to change and become like Jesus. You no longer have to be controlled by selfish or sinful desires: You can experience victory over anger, greed, lust, hatred, drunkenness, discontent, anxiety and fear. The reason we can experience victory, the reason we have this potential to change because God has put His Spirit in us.

You are now free from the fear of judgment.  You are now free from having to live up to a perfect standard gain God’s approval.  And you are now free from guilt.  For now whenever you do sin, you have an advocate before the Father, Jesus Christ, the righteous one, who paid for your sin and declares you righteous.  That’s God’s grace to you in Christ Jesus, and its what makes your relationship with God absolutely secure!

God’s Word tells us that your union with Christ connects you to a history far longer than you could ever trace in a family tree.  It stretches from eternity past to eternity future and puts everything in between into fresh perspective.  It tells you that God’s love for you stretches back before creation.  It tells you that God has always had a plan for your life.  Your life has purpose and meaning.  It tells you that God has always wanted you to be with Him.  And it tells you that God has always intended to make some thing beautiful of your life.
