WALK WITH THE LORD!
Colossians 2:6 – Devotional
Colossians 2:6
“As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in Him.“
God’s plan for us following our salvation is to be more like Him in our behavior. We are to live and behave by God’s grace and our faith by believing and receiving His provision of eternal salvation. We are saved by trusting in Him alone.
When we place our trust in the completed work of Jesus Christ we begin our walk as new believers. It is at this point that much confusion exists. All too often we are led to believe that we are kept by our works. We can no more be kept by our good works than we can be saved by our good works.
Notice in today’s Scripture that Paul writes that just as we received Jesus Christ, we are to walk with Him by grace and through faith. In order to be strong and productive believers we need to live in victory. We do that be constantly walking by faith as God’s own dear children.
As adoptive children of the God of the universe we have received a new name and a new identity. There is nothing we can do that will keep us saved any more than we could do anything to deserve it in the first place. We simply walk with assurance as His dear children.
May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!
