This is about how the Living Christ can become alive and powerful in your life.
The definition of endemic is belonging to a specific group of people with the same characteristics.
If you are a believer, your old self has died on the Cross and you have inherited the endemic nature of God.
The Holy Spirit is sealed inside you. He is the life of Christ and is at work to transform you into the character of Jesus.
The charge from God is to set your minds on the things above, not on earthly things. This is difficult because we live in the world and our livelihood comes from laboring on the earth.
The Bible says we live in the world but we are not of the world. This is recognizing our heritage in Christ and the promises of God.
Set your mind on the things above through prayer, meditating on the Word, and listening for the voice of God.
The best way to integrate the world into your spiritual life is through the Holy Spirit. Give the Holy Spirit authority over your life and commit your works each day to God.
You will be amazed how you can walk in the light, be productive and receive the blessings of God. Jesus wants to lead you to victories and an abundant life.
The Holy Spirit will teach you how to abide in God while living in an evil world influenced by Satan. He will keep your motives pure and guide your decision making.
You are a new creature in Christ and the only way you can revert back to your old self is by living through your fleshly desires and thoughts.
Walk in oneness with Jesus anchored to the Holy Spirit. Be open to the conviction and correction of the Holy Spirit and heed His warnings and instructions.
We create problems for ourselves by not inquiring of the Lord prior to making decisions. Submit all your important decision making to God and wait upon Him before proceeding with action. Jesus is omniscient and knows every detail of your future. Don’t waste this valuable counsel and create misery for yourself.
Your new self is continually being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator. Ask God each day to let the Word of Christ dwell richly in you with all wisdom and understanding.
Therefore, as God’s chosen people, clothe yourselves with the fruit of the Spirit. The Holy Spirit will fill you with the Living Water enabling you to exude compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience everywhere you step.
God desires for all His people to have a forgiving and contrite attitude.
The unconditional love of Christ has forgiven you from all your past sins so you must forgive others who have hurt or maligned you.
Sometimes God disciplines and refines believers with what seems like cruel and harsh measures. We have to forgive God during seasons of testing and for the fiery trials coming in our lives. God knows exactly what He is doing!
Finally, we need to be thankful people and pray for the peace of Christ to be alive in our hearts at all times.
