Sermon: 1450 How to Have a Spirit-Controlled Life, Part 2
Pray Over This
“As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him.”
Ponder This
What is a walk? It is one step at a time. It takes two feet to walk. Do you realize when you walk, you’re off-balance? If you don’t take another step, you’ll fall after a while. You take one step, and then the other step is necessary, and then the other step is necessary. The way you walk is one step at a time, and it takes two feet to walk. What are the two feet of the Christian faith? Repentance and faith. How did you receive the Lord Jesus? By repentance and faith. What is repentance? Repentance is God’s way of revealing myself to me, and faith is God’s way of revealing Jesus to me. Repentance is where I see my bankruptcy; faith is where I see His glory.
When I became a Christian, I did not know much, but I had a hunger in my heart to know God. When I got saved, I gave all I knew of me to all I knew of Him. Frankly, I knew very little about myself or Him at that time. But I did know I was sinful, and I did know He was glorious. But since that time, I have learned a whole lot more about me, and none of it is good; and I’ve learned a whole lot more about Him, and it’s better than I ever thought.
