The Walk of the Child of God.

Last week we looked at a portion of Paul and Timothy's prayer that we as believers would be strengthened with all power, a power that has as its source the Father's glorious might or power. This week we will be focused on the purpose of powerful spiritual strengthening. That is the attaining of all steadfastness and patience while joyously giving thanks to the Father. The call to be steadfast in the face of the schemes of the Devil. To be steadfast as the culture pushes in the direction of evil and confusion. We ponder the wonder of God's work summarized in the phrase "who has qualified us."

Paul lists the benefits of being born again. this week He tells us about being adopted into Gods family! He also talks about evidences that prove to us we are Gods children.

Everyone wants happiness and everyone wants to be satisfied. But people take very different paths to achieve those goals. In the end, all idolatry leads to pain and ruin. But putting God at the center of our lives leads to fullness of joy and pleasures forevermore.

The Gospel of the Kingdom - Message 94 - Blessing the Little Children - Matthew 19:13-14. "Let the little children come to Me." How do we bring our children to Christ to be blessed by Him? By teaching them His Law and the Gospel.

It is only through the Holy Spirit that Christians can no longer live "in the flesh," even though the flesh might still live in them.

Acts 17:26 "And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation;" King James Version

Like any discipline in life, the study of the Word of God does not come without some requirements. It will NEVER happen by accident. It occurs only by intentional effort and labor.

God's faithfulness and favor has been directed to His servants just as His Word has promised. It is incumbent on each believer to receive these good gifts and walk in His ways.

PULLING IT TOGETHER AGAIN: When things fall apart.Psalm 119:107 "Everything's falling apart on me, God. Put me together again with your Word." How do we pull things together again when they fall apart? We can start by: (1) mourning – expressing our hurt to God, (2) fasting – focusing our heart on God, and (3) praying – asking for help from God. We can keep going by both taking time to say thank you – and by choosing to celebrate every victory. Finally, we can make it last by dedicating it to God.
