Staying tuned into Jesus!

The word of God today is learning how to live in the sustaining power of Christ. This is not easy to do and we all stumble at times.

Many believers have the wrong mindset about Jesus. The gift of salvation does not allow you to escape the adversities of life. In fact, you will probably encounter more trials then a non believer.

You are told to pray, go to church, and read the Bible. Then you go out into the world and encounter darkness and disappointment. This creates an up and down relationship with God.

This scenario happens because every day you enter into a war between light and darkness. And, you have to deal with your fleshly indulgences which do not want to yield to the authority of Jesus.

We lapse in our walk with Jesus when the trials come and there are no answers from the Holy Spirit. We look at life through our eyes and neglect the promises of God. Faith waivers or becomes non existent.

Light and darkness do not co-mingle. If you allow darkness to creep into your life the power of the Holy Spirit will diminish and you will be vulnerable to adversity and the perils of Satan.

How do you live in the sustaining power of Christ with consistency regardless of the conditions of your life?

The decision for Christ is to give all of your life to Him without holding anything back for yourself. If you deny Christ in parts of your life you open the door to Satan. And, He wants to destroy you.

The most important thing to do each day is to commit your works to God, invite the Holy Spirit to have authority over your life, and open yourself up to the conviction and correction of the Holy Spirit.

Ask Jesus to cover you with His blood and pray for wisdom in seeking the will of God with pure motives.

Walking with God is a full time job and requires a lot of work.

Your relationship with God cannot be off and on if you want His wisdom and protection.

Develop an uninterrupted consciousness with God through prayer, listening for His voice and meditating on His words.

Jesus is alive and lives in you. He wants to be your safety net.
