“And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns.”
Philippians 1:6 NLT
God has begun a good work in us by revealing His love and forgiveness. When we say “yes”to Him we invite His Holy Spirit in as caretaker, counsel or and guide. The Holy Spirit begins working on us, purifying us and making us whole. As we yield to Him in faith we are transformed into the likeness of Jesus, piece by piece our life changes.
When we are in battles for our mind and heart we need to rely on the Holy Spirit more and hunker down with Him. He will remind us to seek what scripture says about us. For example:
God has not given me a spirit of fear but of love, power and a sound mind (2 Tim 1:7). Our God gives us good weapons to fight our enemy. We need to use them.
Our minds we cover with the knowledge of salvation, our chest we cover with the breastplate of righteousness, we gird our loins with truth, our feet with the message of the good news about Christ. Our shield is faith and sword is the Spirit of God.
use them! Amen!
