572 Days Saved - A Walk with Christ
*His Strength*
And whatever you do whether in word or deed, do it in the name of Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the father through me. Colossians 3:17 NIV
Many people as well as some other religions work and promote themselves to be Gods. Anything that is all about self or worshiping an idol will fail. It's built on mushy land not a strong rock foundation.
Our God met through Jesus Christ did not create us to be individual Gods. Individually we cannot rule but as we connect and grow in the body of Christ, meaning join hands with other like minded Christians, we become stronger. We become stronger in worshiping and making change within God's gIfted light. It's like turning up a heat lamp to cool an ice cube. In the warmth the fringed cold decreases but move outside that light to work by your own strength you'll just get cold again eventually.
We cannot do things or conquer this world in our own power! We were not made to become our own Gods. We were made in the likeness of our father and made to worship and give thanks to He whom created us. We do this to build the warmth in the body of Christ. Anything you do do it with the name recognition through our God Lord Jesus Christ. Not our own name and strength but in the strength of Jesus our saving grace!
The Challenge:
Give an example of a time you did something in your own strength and failed? Give an example of a time you did something in God's strength and flourished?
***If you have not accepted Jesus as your personal savior begin to seek out why God is found through this man named Jesus Christ. Questioning and Seeking is the beginning of growing in faith!
