Fullness in walking with God
There is but one way to heaven. The Word says Straight is the Gate and Narrow is the Way to salvation, When you are born of your Mother womb you are born into sin, Rom 5:12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned: When you are Born of the water in the name of Jesus Christ, this Signifies the Death Burial and the Resurrection of what Jesus did on the Cross, as mentioned by Paul in Romans 6:3-5 , Christ was not born into sin but, rather took on sin, to redeem us from it, he showed us the way to be saved , when he told John the Baptist it is for us to fulfill all righteousness showing us what to do,
He told Nicodemus these same things, John 3:5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.. He gave Peter the keys to salvation , Acts 2: 37 Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do? 38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and not many days hence ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. 39 For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call. 40 And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation. 41 Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls.
Now there is More for when you are Baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ, you are not under the Law of sin, you are covered by his Grace. There is more for his Promise is to you your children and as many as are afar off, Now he told the Apostles to wait here in the upper room for the Power from on high. You see its not just the infilling of the Holy Ghost, it is Power from on high. The Apostles waited and prayed, and while in worship to the Lord were filled with Power from on high. Then God is in you, not in the sky, you don't have to write him a letter and hope the wind takes it there, and hope he sees it as it blows by. Nor do you need to wonder if he will do this thing you ask, for he said he would, when you ask and doubt not in your heart.
This is where the Faith comes in knowing the Father loves you for you are his Son. He said cast your cares on me which means you trust him with everything, so there is no need to fear, for in love he brought you out of the world and by love, likewise in love he casts out all fear, for he will give you that which you ask. Ask what you will and the Father will do it for you. TRUST IN THE LORD AND HE WILL RENEW YOUR STRENGHT!!! John 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the Sons of God, even to them that believe on his name. Therefore become a Son of God the Father, for his yoke is easy and the burden is light.
Let us Pray, Father we come to you today , Lord is we have sinned against another or hold hard feeling for another we ask we be forgiven Lord we call on you to make us grow ,put in us an unction to read the Bible ,study the Word that we may be strong in the power of your might and unwavering when we come to you and ask in your name ,Lord guide us into all things which will help us learn and grow to maturity in Jesus name
