THE SECRET OF STABILITY IN CHRISTIAN LIFE

 

( Colossians 2:6-7 ) 6 As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him:

7 Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.

a. Gods great desire to all Christians are to be strong in their Christian life.

 ( Ephesians 6:10-12 ) 10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.

11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

b. Our spiritual enemy are always ready to attact us to discourage and destroy us. So we need to be strong in our Christian life.

c. The God of all is ready to help us to be strong in our Christian life.

( I Peter 5:10 ) 10 But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.

21 For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follows his steps:

4. RENEW THEIR LIFE IN CHRIST.

 

( Ephesians 4: 23-26 ) 23 And be renewed in the spirit of your mind;

47 Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods.

* God bless you all always. *
