The chivalry of Christ!

“Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.” 2 Corinthians 5:17

Jesus spoke the word chivalry to me last night. He identifies with the attributes of chivalry.

Chivalry is the combination of qualities expected of an ideal knight, especially courage, honor, courtesy, justice, and a readiness to help the weak.

These are the identical qualities of Jesus and His desire is for you and I to emulate these in our lives.

The Holy Spirit will anoint you with the chivalry of Jesus. Ask and you shall receive but ask by faith believing in the resurrected power of Christ.

We all need courage to deal with the challenges of life especially during these times of despair and economic uncertainty.

We honor God by seeking His will for our life and appropriating the values of Christ in all of our affairs.

Courtesy is simply treating others like you would want to be treated. It is acting with respect for those people around you.

We employ the justice of God by making decisions honoring Jesus. It is doing the right thing even if it does not benefit you. It is living with the integrity of God.

We help the weak through prayer, encouragement, and sharing what God has given to us with those in need.

These lofty standards are impossible to attain unless you are living in oneness with Jesus anchored to the Holy Spirit.

The journey of a believer is a transformation into a new creature filled with the life of Jesus. You die to self and live for Christ. 

This can only happen if you make a commitment to live for Jesus above all else and are baptized by the Water and Spirit..

Jesus is a man for all seasons and wants to share Himself with you!
