I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.
John 15:5, ESV
We can try doing all sorts of things for God, but if we are not first found in Christ it will all be useless.
Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children. And walk in love, as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.
Ephesians 5:1-2, ESV
We tend to get too focused on what others do to us or do not do for us.
Instead, we should be more concerned with how we can serve others.
Sacrificially.
Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. No one has ever seen God; if we love one another, God abides in us and his love is perfected in us.
1 John 4:11-12, ESV
One of the signs you are a saved Christian is a love for the Church. Just as Jesus was rejected by His own people, we may deal with rude, obnoxious people, or even those who are mean and reject us.
But we still love them.
for God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.
2 Timothy 1:7 ESV
In Christ we are overcomers of fear, weakness, and hatred. In Him we have power over the enemy, hatred, and our faults. We’d have His love flowing through us. We learn to control ourselves in all things.
And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you.
1 Peter 5:10, ESV
The enemy does not want us to be joyful or successful in Christ and will fight us continuously.
But if we remain faithful, our Lord will heap His strength on us to not only keep us going but thrive and be ready for our eternal home.
Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
John 14:6 ESV
As the bumper sticker states, “No Jesus, No Peace. Know Jesus, Know Peace.”
Contrary to popular belief, Jesus is the only way to eternal life.
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.
John 14:27, ESV
The One who has overcome death and the grave, conquered sin and violence, and sustains the Universe itself has given us peace.
Fall on Christ. It will break you, but you will be made whole and find His peace.
And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:7, ESV
When we trust God for everything, give Him all the glory and credit for everything, we will find that nothing can faze us.
Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion, for behold, I come and I will dwell in your midst, declares the Lord .
Zechariah 2:10, ESV
Heaven is not some ethereal place where we will live forever.
Christ shall establish His Kingdom on the new Earth, and we will live with God and He with us in this renewed world!
For to set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace. For the mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God, for it does not submit to God’s law; indeed, it cannot. Those who are in the flesh cannot please God.
Romans 8:6-8, ESV
How easily we get caught up in our worries, wants, and walking. (Being indifferent. Alliteration is fun.)
These times are active rebellion against God. We should pay for the Father to give us the strength and wisdom to overcome in Christ by the power of the Holy Spirit.
