Cross Driven Life
When we realize what Jesus did on the cross, everything changes. Life becomes a ministry.
What did He do? Jesus gifted us three major victories.
Removed our blindness to His word through the Spirit (1 Corinthians 2:2,13,14). We understand the Bible because of the Spirit of God. Satan's stronghold and blinding darkness have been broken by God's light.
Overcame the World (Galatians 6:14-16). The world is no longer deeply rooted in us. Our interests are on things above (Colossians 3:1-3).
Victory over fleshly natures (Galatians 5:24,25). The fruit of the Spirit is the result of cultivating a good heart because of the wonderful work of the cross.
We've received these victories. But don't always feel like it. That's because we are still in the flesh, in the world, and daily attacked by Satan.
We also feel our conscience crying out and getting pricked because, through the Word and Spirit, we know what is right and wrong.
God speaks to us through visions, dreams, Word, Spirit, prophecies, etc.
We are fully aware of the two worlds we are exposed to daily. Most Youths do not understand this and fall into sin again and again. Confusion, restlessness, doubts, anger, etc. set into their hearts. The heart gets toxic.
Yet there is a voice that reminds us to be THANKFUL, JOYFUL, and HOPEFUL. The Spirit of God reminds us of the cross of Christ. Every sin and curse got removed from us spiritually, so we can meditate on His Word and renew ourselves daily.
Be thankful in Prayer.
Be joyful in His Spirit.
Stay hopeful in His perfect Word.
Dearly beloved of the Lord, it's finished. You are set up for eternity through Jesus. Get ready. Prepare. Maranatha, Praise God, and Amen.
