Our wealth influences our walk. If we seek after worldly wealth, the way that we live will reflect the values of the flesh. But if we pursue spiritual wealth, we will walk like a child of God.
How is our life like a tree? As the root goes deeper, so fruit grows upward. Likewise, as Christ as declared us righteous, we begin to bear his fruit outwardly.
Who are you in Christ? Have you forgotten? It is easy to forget what Scripture says about us. Memorizing specific identity affirmations from Scripture can be a great help in your walk with Christ.
Who are you? What defines you? People look to many sources for their identity: money, position, political party, career, social media, sexuality, family... the list goes on. However, what really defines you as you? Who or what has the final say?
Scripture tells us that the more we know God, the more we love Him—but His love for us never changes. He already knows us and fully loves us, calling us to obedience in Him.
Revelation reveals to us that the Logos, the second person of the Trinity, became one of us and shed His blood on our behalf. Reflection on the truth of God's Word gives us a greater appreciation for beauty of God's works, which enjoins us to the delight of God's praise.
Unlike other religions, Christianity reveals the Triune nature of our glorious God. This is mysterious in itself—but God goes even farther and draws us into this loving relationship with Himself.
What does it mean to have life in Christ? How do you cultivate intimacy with the Lord? There are three aspects to having a relational spiritual life: (1) loving God completely, (2) loving yourself correctly, and (3) loving others compassionately. One cannot begin this process without first knowing who God is.
