What does the God of Abraham, Issac, and Jacob want from you and me? He has repeatedly impressed this verse on my heart and mind. I received it again during my morning meditation.
“He has shown you, O man, what is good;
And what does the Lord require of you
But to do justly,
To love mercy,
And to walk humbly with your God?
Micah 6:8 (NKJV).
Here’s what I am reading this evening. We can find hope and consolation in these verses. We have the victory through the finished work on the cross.
“8 So now there is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus.
2 And because you belong to him, the power of the life-giving Spirit has freed you from the power of sin that leads to death.
3 The law of Moses was unable to save us because of the weakness of our sinful nature.
So God did what the law could not do. He sent his own Son in a body like the bodies we sinners have. And in that body God declared an end to sin’s control over us by giving his Son as a sacrifice for our sins.
4 He did this so that the just requirement of the law would be fully satisfied for us, who no longer follow our sinful nature but instead follow the Spirit.”
Romans 8: 1-4 (NLT). #Christian #HolySpirit #Bible
Cheer up!
God is in total control of everything that happens.
“And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.” Romans 8:28 (NKJV).
