Raising The Bar To God's Word Of Truth To Fulfil His Will In All We Say And Do
Each one of us, individually, must exercise ourselves unto godliness, raising the standard of God's Word, Christ's Nature, in our own lives; and we must remind ourselves that, in these trying times, we are not wrestling against flesh and blood, but against spiritual wickedness, and that the weapons of our warfare are not fleshly, but mighty through God.
Jesus said, "Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in Heaven (Matthew 5:13-16)."
How can each of us accomplish any of this? To begin with, we must recognize that we can do nothing of ourselves, but we can do all things through the Spirit of The Lord. Then, as we follow The Holy Spirit of Truth as He leads us in-to absolute all Truth, we can increasingly enter into the living power and knowledge of God's Word; for it is His Word that makes us free! "If ye continue in My Word, then are ye My disciples indeed; And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free (John 8:31-32)."
Through the Word of God, we must submit unto the true fulfillment found only in Christ Jesus. Then, through the truth of the Word of God, we can expose the imitations offered by the world for the lies that they are, and reveal the true fulfillment of Jesus Christ through our personal testimony, witness, and example.
As Jesus said, "And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto Me (John 12:32)." What did He mean by that? When Jesus referred to being lifted up, He was not only speaking of the type of death that He would suffer on the cross at Calvary. He was also referring to the truth that if we are baptized- that is, saturated- in Him, and live His righteousness daily, He will draw all men to Himself through us.
The enemy offers imitations of the flesh, through his willing models of the flesh; but as partners with God, we are meant to offer the true fulfillment of Jesus Christ, through being a willing model of His life!
So, how do we get more "Clues to a Fruit-full Life" in The LORD?
"The LORD gave the word: great was the company of those that published it (Psalm 68:11)."
