Our old self died to sin, our new self, lives by faith. We have been crucified with Christ, so might live.
I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me. Galatians 2:20 NASB https://bible.com/verse-of-the-day/gal.2.20/51168
We need nourishment physically, but more so, to live the life, Jesus called us to through Faith. This comes from his word, which satisfies us.
Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life; he who comes to Me will not hunger, and he who believes in Me will never thirst. John 6:35 NASB https://bible.com/verse-of-the-day/jhn.6.35/338
To all my friends, He is Risen!
“Cease striving and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.” Psalms 46:10 NASB https://bible.com/verse-of-the-day/psa.46.10/7404
The tears of repentance quickly lead to shouts of joy, from forgiveness. How Great is our God, that we should be shown, such Grace and Mercy. May we show the same, to those around us.
Those who sow in tears shall reap with joyful shouting. Psalms 126:5 NASB https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.126.5.NASB
Jesus was a man, but also God. He came to fulfill prophecy, to and satisfy the need for a sacrifice for mankind’s brokenness. He gave his life so that we might live. This is good news and it is the Power of God, unto Salvation. I….Am….Not…Ashamed!!!
For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. Romans 1:16 NASB https://bible.com/verse-of-the-day/rom.1.16/52786

Father, I am yours today, to do your will. Help me, to be filled with your Spirit today, by praying and meditating on your word, so that I might not fall into temptation. Your word says, I can do ALL things through Christ who strengthens me. Father, please don’t let the distractions of this world keep me from remebering your death and resurrection, and loving those around me as you have so sacrificially loved me.
Keep watching and praying that you may not enter into temptation; the spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.” Matthew 26:41 NASB https://bible.com/verse-of-the-day/mat.26.41/51182
Jesus transitioned the Passover dinner, from looking forward to Messiah, to looking back to his coming, through remembering Jesus as the fulfillment of that promise! That is what he called the New Covenant.
And in the same way He took the cup after they had eaten, saying, “This cup which is poured out for you is the new covenant in My blood. Luke 22:20 NASB https://bible.com/verse-of-the-day/luk.22.20/51176
We need to keep our eye on the crown, for persecution will come, as we live out our faith. Remember, Jesus said, take courage, I have overcome the world! May we be little overcommers today.
“Blessed are those who have been persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 5:10 NASB https://bible.com/verse-of-the-day/mat.5.10/51183
