For us to abide in Christ and for Christ to abide in us, we need to take Christ as our dwelling place and everything, we need to eat Christ as the hidden manna, and we need to love the Lord Jesus. In John 15 the Lord Jesus said, Abide in Me and I in you; […]
We’re able to do all Things in Christ who Empowers us to live out the Highest Virtues
We need to learn the secret of being content in all things and all environments, the secret to living Christ; this secret is Christ Himself, for we are able to do all things in Christ who empowers us. Paul testified in Phil. 4:12-13 that he knew how to be abased and how to abound, for […]
We Sing-Read the Word to let it Dwell in us Richly and Live Christ to Magnify Him
Praise the Lord for His divine and rich provision for our constant salvation! As we pray-read the Word, sing-read the Word, and even psalm-read the Word, the Word of Christ dwells in us richly, and we spontaneously hold forth the word of life – this is to live Christ that He may be magnified in […]
