Therefore, there is now NO condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death. For what the law was powerless to do because it was weakened by the flesh, God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh to be a sin offering. And so he condemned sin in the flesh. In order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fully met in us, WHO DO NOT LIVE according to the flesh BUT ACCORDING TO THE SPIRIT.
Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires; but those WHO LIVE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE SPIRIT HAVE THEIR MINDS SET ON WHAT THE SPIRIT DESIRES.The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the MIND GOVERNED BY THE SPIRIT IS LIFE AND PEACE.
Romans 8:1-6
Do not CONFORM to the pattern of this world, but BE TRANSFORMED by the RENEWING OF YOUR MIND. Then you will be able to test and approve WHAT GOD’S WILL IS – HIS GOOD, PLEASING AND PERFECT WILL.
Romans 12:2
Meditation:
We’re surrounded for negative influences; TV. Social media, Movies, etc. most of those influences focus in a material world, the desires of the flesh, which causes all kind of struggles; mental disorders, diseases, etc.
Living in a Material world, with a mind set in what the flesh desires brings: chaos, violence, hate, racism, anxiety, depression, wars etc.
But there is a Powerful Spiritual realm where you can be TRANSFORMED. When our mind is set on what the SPIRIT desires; which is to know, Accept and HONOR God’s will in our lives, we can Receive SALVATION, PEACE and Enjoy a NEW SPIRITUAL MIND, A NEW ETERNAL SPIRITUAL LIFE!
Since the crucifixion, Jesus Christ in a sense eradicated death and sin. Dying on the cross, we learned that his sacrifice washed our sins away, clearing the debt, not only for the past, but also the future. Thus death had no lasting dominion over men thanks to the resurrection, and the promise of the afterlife which all God’s children can expect to enter into, rejoicing in the name JESUS. Therefore, now there is no condemnation to them in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made us free from the law of sin and death.
Today is the day, to choose... SALVATION and ETERNAL SPIRITUAL LIFE… or Death and eternal condemnation?
Prayer:
God our Heavenly Father, heavy is the debt we owe to you and your Son, who paid for our sin with his blood, and who gave us HOPE in SALVATION. Praise be in Jesus Christ who showed us your word made flesh, and the flesh made HOLY. In our FAITH we shall not fear death, for it only serves to bring us closer to your love and grace wherein we may REST in JOY and PEACE, in your loving embrace. Every day REFRESH our souls and empower us to continue JOYFULLY sharing the “Good News of Salvation”. In JESUS’ name, we pray. Amen!
