We learn from Scriptures that to be a Christian is not
a title. It is about being like Jesus Christ. What does it mean to be like
Jesus Christ?
Scriptures teach us that no one can be like Jesus
Christ unless he/she belongs to Him. No one belongs to Jesus Christ unless
he/she has his Spirit.
Romans 8:9 … Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
How therefore one knows that he/she has the Spirit of
Christ ? The Bible gives us 4 irrefutable proofs :
1st proof: I know that I have the Spirit of
Christ when I have the same attitude that Jesus had. It means when I think, I understand
things, I see things from the same perspective than Jesus Christ.
Philippians 2:5
Have the same attitude that Christ Jesus had.
Question : DO I HAVE THE SAME ATTITUDE THAT JESUS CHRIST HAD?
PRAYER 1
Father, as I usher in this month of November 2016, I pray that you baptize me with the Spirit of
Christ so that I may feel what Jesus feels, see what Jesus sees, see things the
way Jesus sees, speaks the way Christ speaks, behave the way Christ behaves.
====================================================
2nd proof: I know that I have the Spirit of
Christ when I walk the way Jesus Christ walked. The Bible teaches us that Jesus
Christ walked his entire life in two ways : he walked in love and in light.
Ephesians 5:2
And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, …
1 John 1:7 But
if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, …
Question : DO I WALK IN LOVE AND IN LIGHT THE WAY JESUS CHRIST WALKED IN THE WORLD?
PRAYER 2
Father, I pray that by your Spirit you transform the
way I walk.
Grant me in this month of November 2016 the grace to walk the way Jesus Christ walked : in love and in light.
Grant me in this month of November 2016 the grace to walk the way Jesus Christ walked : in love and in light.
====================================================
3rd proof: I know that I have the Spirit of
Christ when I follow Christ. Scriptures teach us that following Jesus Christ means
two things : following his instructions and teachings and following his example.
Matthew 11:29
Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and
ye shall find rest unto your souls.
John 13:34
"I’m giving you a new commandment: Love each other in the same way that I
have loved you.
Question : DO I FOLLOW JESUS CHRIST WHOLEHEARTEDLY ?
PRAYER 3
Father, forgive me anytime I didn’t follow Jesus’
instructions and examples. Forgive my stubbornness and my disobedience.
Grant me in this month of November 2016 the grace by your Spirit to follow Christ with all my heart, my spirit, my mind and my thought.
Grant me in this month of November 2016 the grace by your Spirit to follow Christ with all my heart, my spirit, my mind and my thought.
====================================================
4th proof: I know I have the Spirit of Christ
when I do the works (miracles, signs, wonders…) he did
John 14:12 Verily,
verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he
do also; and greater [works] than these shall he do; because I go unto my
Father.
Question : DO I DO THE WORKS OF JESUS CHRIST ?
PRAYER 4
Father, as I usher in ths new month, I pray that you use me as your vessel to
do and display the works of Christ as never before. Let the sick be healed
through me. Let the dead be resurrected through me. Let the blind recover sight
through me. Let the whole world know Jesus Christ through me.
IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST !!!!!!!
