What to do after you're saved |
Do you want to be saved? The Bible reveals the truths that when you give your life to Jesus, you have been received by hearkening the word of God and must know who you are in Jesus, how you walk, and please God. Who you are in Jesus? The Bible says when you give your life to Jesus, you become a new creature. You are in Jesus and Jesus in you. An instant miracle has taken place which the spirit is poured inside of you. Therefore, you must read the Bible to get the knowledge of God and know who you are in Jesus. You must renew your mind to the spiritual way of thinking. You are redeemed. You are God beloved, joint heir with God. You are blessed, special, and highly favored. The Lord is with you and for you. You have weapons and authority. God gives you power, He gives you wisdom. You are now a saint. Philemon Chapter 1 verse 6. That the communication of your faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus. How do you walk? You walk by faith and not by sight. What is faith? Faith is the substance hoped for. The highest level of faith is resting. We rest knowing with confidence that what you are believing for has already been taken care of. For example, healing. Healing is finished. By his stripes, you were healed. This is a life process until Jesus comes back. Just do the best that you can! Read the Bible daily and meditate the scriptures. Apply the scriptures to your daily life. Walk in the truth and agree with it. How do you please God? When you please God, you are doing what God wants you to do. You put him first in your giving because he is your source. But be a cheerful giver. Sometimes, it's hard; but ,you will get there. Just work on it! When you give is honoring God, you give thanks, worship and praise, trust and obey. You read his word and give him all the glory. You be good to other people and help one another. When you're saved by Grace and know your identity, you walk by faith (in the spirit), and please God by being obedient. I encourage you to get in a good Bible based church and find the time to get a relationship with God. Letha Kitchens 9/14/17 |
