ABIDING IN JESUS

A message from a friend.

Living Like Jesus.

Greetings to all of you in the name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. 

_(Whoever claims to live in Him must live as Jesus did. 1 John 2:6)_ 

Dearly beloved, To know about the life of Jesus, how He lived His life on this earth, you have to flip through the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. 

There you read about the zealous life of Jesus; He was full of humility and honesty. He abided with God and fulfilled the will of His Father. 

Not only that, the Gospels tell us about the godly characteristics that Jesus had. He went about doing good deeds in the image of God. 

Therefore, you too must follow the footsteps of Christ and lead a godly life. As the Bible says, “ Whoever claims to live in Him must live as Jesus did” 1 John 2:6. 

We should walk in the ways of the Lord and to carry out His ministry as mentioned in Isaiah 59:21, “As for me, this is my covenant with them,” says the Lord. “My Spirit, who is on you, will not depart from you, and my words that I have put in your mouth will always be on your lips, on the lips of your children and on the lips of their descendants—from this time on and forever,” says the Lord”. 

Dearly Beloved! Will you cast away all the wrong approaches to life and walk in the ways of the Lord today? Are you ready to become a child of Jesus, like the wayward wife who turned to the Lord? 

You never know, what the day brings but if you have the characteristic traits like Jesus; it will be easy for you to handle every situation. If you are rooted deep in the Lord, only then you will bear fruits worthy of His calling. 

Jesus says, “Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me” John 15:4. 

So, when you abide in Jesus; it implies you walk in His ways. This way, you avoid the snares of the evil one and have the right approach to people; sharing the love of Christ. You become a channel of blessing to others. 

Prayer- Savior Jesus Christ, you have set a great example before me to lead a godly life. I seek your grace to follow your footsteps and live a pious life. 

Lord Lead me and guide me to fulfill your will in my life. In the matchless name of Jesus I pray. Amen 

This day, God bless you all abundantly.
