We read Philippians 1 today in our Spoken Word Bible reading Plan. Verse 6 is a very important verse for every born again believer to BELIEVE and RECEIVE!
6 And I am convinced and sure of this very thing, that He Who began a good work in you will continue until the day of Jesus Christ [right up to the time of His return], developing [that good work] and perfecting and bringing it to full completion in you.
Holy Spirit, at the very moment that we received JESUS as Lord and personal Saviour, came to live IN us! He recreated our previously dead human spirit into the image of God, making us that new creation that never existed before! AND, as this verse declares, THAT was the GOOD WORK that He BEGAN! He is continuing to work IN us as we spend time in His presence, time in the Word, time in praise and worship, and time in fellowship with like-minded believers (local church family is the very best place for that)! HE is the One who is doing all the work in us as we simply make ourselves available to Him! AMEN! Let's make whatever adjustments are necessary for us to continue this process of growing up - IN HIM! OUR lives will be better and so will the lives of those who count on us! Here is Hillsong with "Valentine", because He is OURS and WE are HIS!
Shalom in Him!
