Day 4: A Very Important Question

How do we live the Christian life?

One word that pops up in the Bible is the word “through.”

Do you know how many of us are spelling Christianity? We are spelling it D-O— “do.” But it should be T-H-R-O-U-G-H— “through.” Through Jesus. How do we live our life? With Jesus living through us and us living through Him.

Our greatest desire is to live a life pleasing to God. Giving time and attention to Christ—listening, watching, seeking, and questing after Him—results in love and honor for Jesus. And when we love and honor Jesus, we live a life that is pleasing to God.

How do we live this type of life? Through Christ. He does it through us (Rom. 8:37). That happens when we surrender our time and attention to Him so we can love and honor Him.

You can’t live through Him if you don’t know Him.  If you have never trusted Jesus Christ as your Savior and laid down your life at the cross, say this out loud: “Jesus, I want to trust in You. Not in my wisdom, not in my own way of doing life. I want You. I lay down my life at the cross and say, ‘Jesus, I want You to be my Savior. I want You to wash me clean. I am trusting in You alone for salvation and forgiveness.  Only You can take me to heaven when I die.’”

That’s what it means to be saved. That’s what it means to be born again. That’s what it means to know Jesus personally. THROUGH the cross and the resurrection of Christ, we received a relationship with God.

Maybe you already know Him as Savior but you’re not walking in spiritual maturity. Walk in a pleasing way before the Lord because He loves you and let Him live His life

T-H-R-O-U-G-H - through you as you live your life T-H-R-O-U-G-H -through Him.
