Good Morning Beauties!
As we come back to the truth, “you are redeemed,” reflect on all God has revealed to you in the past 3 days. What stands out? What lies have been silenced? What deep places has the Spirit taken you?
Today the Lord spoke to my heart about the absolute love He has for me. It’s unending, overflowing and perfect! He also showed me today it’s when I remove myself from the vine (Jesus is the vine and we are the branched) that I fall into the lies of the enemy. Beauties, we must stay connected to Jesus, every hour, every minute, every second of every day. Our abiding in Christ is vital to every aspect of our lives.
I love how Isaiah describes our life in Christ as the “Way of Holiness” - the way of sovereign grace that redeems us from sin. (35:8-10)
“And a highway will be there; it will be called the Way of Holiness; it will be for those who walk on that Way. The unclean will not journey on it; wicked fools will not go about on it. No lion will be there, nor any ravenous beast; they will not be found there. But only the redeemed will walk there, and those the Lord has rescued will return. They will enter Zion with singing; everlasting joy will crown their heads. Gladness and joy will overtake them, and sorrow and sighing will flee away.”
The Way of Holiness has three important characteristics. 1) The Way of Holiness is reserved for His people alone. 2) The Way of Holiness is a place of safety. 3) The Way of Holiness will be a place of joy.
Abiding in Christ allows us access to these blessings. Journal your thoughts about the Way of Holiness and the love poured out on you. It may be beneficial to take time to draw your impressions of the highway. Selah.
I don’t know about you, but I’ve been overwhelmed (in a good way) this week as I’ve pondered my redemption through Christ and His love for me. Here’s a precious song to praise our Savior today.
