Actively Doing Your Part in the Great CommissionVoorbeeld

UNDERSTANDING YOUR NEW LIFE IN CHRIST In the next couple of days, I will be dealing with critical areas of life where you need the correct understanding to operate. The greatest of all decisions a human being can make is to receive Jesus Christ as his personal Lord and Saviour. As a person that is born again, you must know what has happened to you. When you gave your life to Christ, something radical and out of this world happened to you. It doesn't matter where you came from and the covenant that binds people there. Now that you are born again, you have entered a covenant relationship with Jesus that swallows up every other covenant you have ever had. Jesus said, “Go in My name". You must know what it means to go in somebody's name. Lots of times, people confront the devil with zeal and not understanding. The Bible says in Luke 10:19, “Behold, I give you the authority…." What does this mean? Ask questions until you gain understanding. The seed of God is planted in you only when you gain an understanding of the word of God. Jesus gave us a parable of the Kingdom in Mark 4. He said a sower went to sow seeds and some fell on the wayside. In explaining that parable, He said those that fell on the wayside were those that heard the word of God but did not understand it, and immediately after, Satan came and stole what was planted in their hearts. Once you lack understanding, it is as good as if you didn't have that experience. PRAYER: Thank You, Jesus, for the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death (Rom. 8:1). Amen!
