THE 29TH OF AUGUST
GOD WANTS US TO BE WITH HIM FOREVER
Being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ; – Philippians 1:6
The apostle Paul knew that it was God’s grace that had begun a good work in the Philippians and that it is true for us today also. Once we accept God’s grace, we can be confident that God will finish what He starts to do in us. When we have strong faith in Jesus Christ, our spirits change, but our minds and emotions remain the same. In order for them to change, it takes determination and effort on our part. But no matter how much we want to change, if we do not work together with the Holy Spirit, no change will ever last.
Our Lord is faithful and He wants us to be transformed and fit for heaven. God has sent His Holy Spirit to work with us, as He is the best Helper and Counselor possible. By studying and meditating on God’s Word, we learn what we need to change. By asking the Holy Spirit to show and reveal to us the Bible verses that show the truth in the area we need change, and by proclaiming them until they become real in our spirits, we can start the improvement process and overcome our weaknesses.
SUGGESTED PRAYER
Heavenly Father, thank You so much for Your grace and for making a way for me to change and overcome my weaknesses, addictions and bad habits. Lord please show me how to pray correctly and what does Your Word say about my shortcomings. Please help me to fully understand the truth and to repeat it until I believe it in my spirit, so that it will change me. You have always helped me and I trust in Your help for overcoming all situations in my life. In the Name of Jesus I pray. Amen.
