The Grace of Our Lord Jesus Christ
(Living holy by Grace-7)
Dear friends of Jesus good morning.
Today we are looking at the basic way by which you can connect the POWER to live a holy life.
Look at this scripture below:
"....the Spirit gives LIFE because of righteousness."
[Romans 8:10b~NIV].
In the scripture above, the word "life" can also be interpreted as "POWER". So if we read that scripture with this in mind, then it would read:..."the Spirit gives POWER because of righteousness. Hallelujah!
Friend, this implies that the POWER you need to overcome temptations and live a holy life is supplied to you continuously by the Holy Spirit of God from within you because you have received the GIFT of righteousness of God in Christ Jesus.
Let me ask, can you overcome temptations and live a holy life by your own "power" or by the POWER of the Holy Spirit of God? The answer is obvious-because the bible says. .not by power nor by might but by my Spirit says the LORD.
But the bible says that the Spirit gives this POWER because of righteousness. That is why you need to always believe and be CONSCIOUS every time that you are always righteous by your faith in Jesus Christ. Then trust that the Holy Spirit will always help you to live a holy life better and better; Not that you want to do it yourself because you will keep failing if you want to use your own power to do it!
Regularly CONFESS and believe that you are righteous by the cleansing blood of Jesus Christ-because to believe is to receive. That is how to reign above temptations.
God bless you.
