I heard someone say the other day, "Dead is Dead". That's kind of blunt, but that's what it comes down to for all of us. Will we choose to devote
ourselves entirely to Someone who’s alive and can bring us vitality, victory,
fruitfulness, and freedom? Or will we keep trying to hold on to our old
existence – something that’s dead and ought to be buried?
We are spiritually lifeless without any connection to God. Baptism in the Spirit is a universal reality for Christians. For we were all baptized by
one Spirit into one body—whether Jews or
Greeks, slave or free—and we were all given the one Spirit to drink.– 1 Corinthians 12:13
We can die or we can be dyed by Jesus Christ. We are
different and are living in a different environment after we accept Christ – we
are now the color of Christ!
The Holy Spirit comes to stay.
And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor to be
with you forever—the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it
neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and
will be in you.– John 14:16-17
He thinks with incredible wisdom and intelligence, because “the
Spirit searches everything, even the depths of God” (1 Cor. 2:10)
All believers can be alive and over-flowing with the Spirit if we choose.
What are you choosing this day?
Be wise today and always - be annointed - be alive in Christ.
