 'He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also to walk, even as he walked' ( 1 John 2:6).

If we claim  to be children of God, we must live as Christ did, and if we say Christ abides in us, we ought to walk as he also did. As a believer in Christ, we should grow to act more and more like Him, and seek to have a fellowship relationship with him. We all have sinned, but as a true believers of Christ, we should come confessing our sins, to the One who is faithful and just to forgive and cleanse us from all our unrighteousness. Let us love God and hate the things of the world, that cannot help or save us. Christ is the living Vine and we are the branches, we are called to abide in Him. As we draw from the true and living Vine, we can say and do things that will please God, our Father. Let us all aspire as believers to be like Christ, live and walk as he did, in total dependence upon God. It is in our living and walking, that we will be able to experience the fulness of God. Without Christ in our lives, we can do nothing; without His life flowing through us as Living water, we are like the barren desert that lies desolate. We need the flowing Water of life, Christ Jesus, to quench our thirsty soul and keep us alive. Therefore, it is very important to abide in Christ and He in us, so we can walk in the ways of faith and responds to His loving call for us to walk in spirit and truth.  Every Christian should know, that we are called  to abide in Christ; and the one who says, "he abides in Him ought himself to walk as he walked.'  Let us seek to abide in Christ, rest in His love, walk in His ways to bring forth much fruit to His praise and glory.

Have a wonderful day

 Devotional 'The Lord is their strength, and he is the saving strength of his anointed' (Psalm 28:8). The Lord our God is the glory of our strength, and in His name we shall rejoice all the day. The Lord is our strength, and the saving strength of His anointed. It is through Christ our anointed that all our blessings come to us. Here we see David, who is a type of our Lord Jesus, praising God. What about you? Christ had done much for us and has achieved full salvation for us, therefore, praise Him! We, like Israel are encouraged that the Lord is our Strength and salvation. When we seek to be in a  relationship with God, He will protect us from our enemies and save us from the crutches of Satan. Just as how Satan attempts to destroy Christ many times, whilst he was on earth, God  saved him and will do the same for us. Christ died to save us all, but it is those who trust Him and have a saving relationship with him that will spend eternity with. He is our High Priest, and J...

 'I protest by your rejoicing  which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily' (1 Corinthians 15:31). Christ our Lord came and died for each and everyone to save us from the bondage of sin. He lived on this earth, ministered to the needs of all who He encountered; He was crucified, and resurrected and is now interceding for us, as our High Priest in Heaven. What if there was no resurrection? What would be the implications for God's people? The preaching of the gospel would be a lie, our faith would be worthless and we would all have remained in our sin. Paul is saying, there would be no cause to his dying daily, or for any one who believed and accept Jesus as their personal Saviour to die daily. Paul was expecting death at any time for Christ's sake. He was constantly in peril of his life, he encountered extreme sufferings and was beset with death. He was willing to die at anytime and in any way for Christ's sake. He did not count his life dear unto himself, but...

 'The Lord thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing' (Zephaniah 3 17). What an amazing and wonderful God we serve, who is mighty to save. The Lord our God is with us and is mighty to save. He will take great delight in us and will quiet us with his love, and also rejoice over us with singing. We didn't have to do anything for God to love us, he did because he created us and we are His. He created us and loves us just as we are. Even when we did not deserve it, the Lord took delight in us. What an awesome God! He is present in the midst of us, loving and caring for us. He protects and defend us; died to save us from sin, so we can have life and have it more abundant. He is mighty to save us from fears; our enemies and the bondage of sin and death. We all need a Saviour, Christ the Lord, who is the cure for our problems and the antidote to sin. Christ has already won ...
