As a born-again believer, a beloved child of God, you have the life of Christ, the very zoe life of God (joh3:16), in you (that is in your Spirit - joh1:12-13; rom8:9), but yet it’s possible to see nothing of it manifest (gal2:20; gal5:4; ef4:17-18).
Christ dwells in your heart, only by faith.

And how does faith come?

[…]
God is such a loving and responsible Father, even more than we. Even though we try so hard to keep a hold on Him and hold fast to His word, His hold on us is what keeps us safe and secure. Our faith in our own ability to keep hold on Him is misplaced. Our ability to hold on changes from day to day, but God never changes and He has promised that He will never relax His hold on us.

Notes Resting In God (Arthur Meintjes)
God wants you to have the strength to be able to coop with life. Because He came to give you life. And if you don’t have strength you can’t coop with life, because with life comes challenges. And most Christians are so worn-out, working for God, that when the challenges of life come they can’t stand against it. They can’t come and coop with it, they can’t...

Ik denk dat veel Christenen ook rechtvaardiging verwarren met heiliging. Tijdens de wedergeboorte heeft er in de geest een verandering plaatsgevonden. Je geest is het deel van je dat is wedergeboren, niet je lichaam of je ziel. Als je dik was voordat je gered was dan ben je dik erna. Je ziel (denken) ook niet, was je dom voor je redding dan ben je nog steeds dom erna. Je krijgt niet ineens een iq...

Sitting At Jesus' Feet, Why Is That Needful
mat11:28 Come unto me, all ye that labour[*2] and are heavy laden, and I will[*1] give you rest[*3].
What is this labor?
gal5:1 NIV It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.

rom6:14 NLT Sin is no longer your master, for you no longer live under the requirements of the law. Instead, you live under the freedom of God’s grace. gal5:1 NLT So Christ has truly set us free. Now make sure that you stay free, and don’t get tied up again in slavery to the law. gal5:4 NLT For if you are trying to make yourselves right with God by keeping the law, you have been cut...

God is so good He deserves all the praise and our thanksgiving from the heart. Appreciate and thank Him for all the good He does and gave you through Jesus. A thankful heart towards God is powerful. The devil can’t stand it. It’s a heart that aligns with the truth. It’s God’s will for you in Christ. It aligns with who you are in the Spirit.

The fruit of Righteousness shall be peace!
The fruit of Righteousness shall be peace!
First comes righteousness, then peace. It’s being established in righteousness. When you know you are right before God you can have peace with God. When you have peace with God you have peace with yourself and with others. When you are troubled, frustrated and in strive, you don’t lack the peace (joh14:27). You lack a revelation of your righteousness in...
