READ
“I will dwell in them
And walk among them.
I will be their God,
And they shall be My people.”
17 Therefore
“Come out from among them
And be separate, says the Lord.
Do not touch what is unclean,
And I will receive you.”
18 “I will be a Father to you,
and you shall be My sons and daughters,
says the Lord Almighty.”
7 Therefore, having these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God. (2 Corinthians 6:16–7:1, NKJV)
REFLECT
Because of these amazing promises:
Dwelling of God is inside
He Walks with me
He is my Father, I am His daughter
He is the Lord Almighty that receives me if I am separate and don’t touch the unclean. (This is the choice He gives us all).
I am beloved and should cleanse myself (my choice) from all filthiness in my flesh and Spirit. This will perfect me in His holiness. I do this because I fear losing my only hope, God and His indwelling!
How do I cleanse my flesh and spirit? I surrender my will and desires and decisions to Him who knows better than I do (His power). I stop reasoning and planning, I let God be the controller of my life since He knows all things and the best way to live, my thinking is faulty due to the fall. What I think sometimes leads to disaster like Eve’s decision. I must live by Faith and Trust.
PRAY
Father, I have control ISSUES!! I want to do my way because I am always thinking I’m right. Jesus, please wash my heart, soul, mind, body, and spirit in your blood. Please renew me in your way. Help me hear, see, believe, and do YOUR WILL not mine. Help me kill my fleshly soul and live for you. I want YOU. I fear losing you!! Save me from myself! Come Holy Spirit!!Amen.
