The Discipline Of Determination
Walk-Line: Determining to live the Christian life is a daily act of surrender and strong intent, that is rooted in the transforming power of God's Word.
Romans 12:1-2, says: "I beseech you therefore, brethren by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect work of God."
The apostle Paul says in Galatians 2:10,
"I have been crucified with Christ, it is no longer I who live, But Christ lives in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God who loved me, and gave His life for me."
It is by the power of the Holy Spirit that helps us to develop a determination to live a life that is pleasing to God. We cannot do it by ourselves, because by ourselves we would be too weak to stand up to the temptation to live for ourselves, and for the world. GP
How can can we live a life of determination?
To be totally committed to the Lord's way?
It takes the enabling of the Holy Spirit,
To help us stand up to the world's sway!
