Wednesday Check-In

Colossians 2:6, 7 (NASB95):
6 Therefore as you have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him,
7 having been firmly rooted and now being built up in Him and established in your faith, just as you were instructed, and overflowing with gratitude.

So Walk in Him
God expects us to live a certain way as believers. It is a lifestyle that is contrary to the way the rest of the world lives. We are not to live unto ourselves, but for Christ. I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me. (Galatians 2:20, NASB95).

Every day we are given the privilege to walk in Him. Did you catch that? We are given the privilege! But what does that mean? It means we are to live a life that is surrendered to God's ways; to live in a way that would be pleasing to Him. How can we know His ways? He speaks through the scriptures. All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; (2 Timothy 3:16, NASB95).

God wants us to understand how to walk in Christ and the best place to start is with scripture.
