As God does the work within our lives by the Holy Spirit, our stance in any
given situation will be a response of genuine action in the love that Jesus
has placed within us by His grace that we have accepted. First of all, it is vital
to our Christian walk to realize that all honor and glory belongs to God! We are
to acknowledge His authority and thank Him for His grace that saves us and His
mercy that sustains us! For us to truly experience the favor of God upon our lives,
we must be qualified to receive that favor. The eligiblity depends upon our
obedience to God in the love of Jesus in a total way; and that in turn, would
reflect the light of what is known in Him to perform the action of service that is
honest in behavior and free from the contamination that pollutes the mind in
the inclination toward evil. It is then within this blameless position of inner
disposition in conformity that shines the outward expression and lifestyle
which opens up the heart and mind in a cleansing that takes place that
brings success spiritually; This is also a happiness that is to be desired of in
good conditon showing both the receiving and giving as example to the
words of Jesus in the instruction to us to live the life that is pleasing to Him.
This is not a work of action desiring the praise of men; but, instead it is to be
pleasing in God’s sight and in strong affection to the work of Jesus within the
heart that shows an outward service of love to others for the right reasons. The
quality of an upright lifestyle in genuine truth: is one that pleases God, (upright
cultivates and cleanses the mind and heart (in order that what is seen is the light
of the knowledge of the work of Jesus), grows into what is healthy and strong, and
relies on the promises of Jesus (which brings deliverance from worldly desires
and needless worry). We should then see the Spirit of God in truth of His Word
at work and what is promised to us in the final outcome in reward and of His
righteous judgment that stands firm. This gives us the assurance that a life
well lived for Him brings the greatest of reward in that we will live and reign
with Him forever eternally! Praise be to God Forever for His matchless love!
Take carefull attention, and allow the Holy Spirit to touch your life by watching
“Pure In Jesus”. May God richly bless your life! LaNora G. Means
