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 […]
We Live Christ by being Saturated with the Word of Life through Pray-reading the Word
Philippians 2:12-16 is a definition of living Christ in Phil. 1:19-21, for the God who operates in us (2:13) is the supplying Spirit (1:19), for us to shine as luminaries (2:15) is to magnify Christ (1:20), and to hold forth the word of life (2:16) is to live Christ (1:21). Paul had a burden in […]
