Know Your Resources as a Child of God | Live By Faith | Self-Study Guide Group Discussion Questions A medical doctor approached me with great excitement at the conclusion of our training conference. He was overflowing with joy and excitement. "Since I have learned how to be filled with the Holy Spirit and walk in His power, the Christian life has become a great adventure for me!" he exclaimed. "Now, I want to experience this same adventure with Christ."
If you have been living in spiritual defeat - powerless and fruitless, wondering if there is any validity to the Christian life - there is hope for you! What greater promise could Christ offer to the Christian than the assurance that he can walk daily in the power of the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of Jesus Christ, and experience an abundant and fruitful life of purpose and adventure? Here is His promise: I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what I have been doing. He will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. Certain basic spiritual truths, when understood and experienced by faith, bring revolutionary spiritual benefits. These proven principles can help you to be more consistent in your walk with God and be more effective in your witness for our dear Savior. The Christian life, properly understood, is not complex nor difficult. As a matter of fact, the Christian life is very simple. It is so simple that we stumble over the very simplicity of it, and yet it is so difficult that no one can live it! This paradox occurs because the Christian life is a supernatural life. The only one who can help us live this abundant life is the Lord Jesus Christ who empowers us with His Holy Spirit. |
