Kept By God

July 23, 2022

Devotions:

          “Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, to the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen.” Jude 1:24-25 KJV

          Jesus will present us before the presence of the Father by His work on the cross. We are a spirit and when we were born again our spirits were made perfect by the power of Jesus.

          As we learn to rely on the Christ in us we will walk in victory. If we walk by the power of our flesh we will fail. The resource is within us which is Christ within us. Our problem is that we have to learn to yield to the Lord in us.

         When we are tempted, we try to resist in our own we will fail but if we look to the Lord and the strength of the Lord we will over come. If we fall it is because we are looking to our own strength. We must walk by faith that is we must believe in His life within us even when we do not see the immediate results. Our faith in what God has says will transform us as we hold to who we are in spite of what the world tells us.

         It is not our power or our intelligence but the power of God and the wisdom of God. We interfere when try to perfect ourselves rather than yield to the perfect life of God within us.
