God speaks today Saturday | October 26, 2024

Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in thee? (Psalm 85:6)
Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. (Romans 6:4)
Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas

Full life in new life

The new life in Christ is beyond human understanding and begins with repentance and faith in Jesus as Savior and Lord. Only those who have been born again in Christ can fully enjoy a spiritual life. God forgives and desires to give us a new heart and spirit. We should reflect on our own conversion experience and strive for a full life in Christ empowered by the blood of Christ and hope in his second coming. Our abundance is found in Christ himself.

Comments:

Efigenia Vidal : The theme of today's devotional is of great value. My being born again allows me to know the demands of God in my walk in this physical plane, in equipping myself with the spiritual weapons that God provides us through His word. I just finished praying in my ongoing search for the God of life early in the morning. It is the incentive for me, and as a believer and member of His army, to pray in the midst of the affliction we live in Venezuela. Our help comes from God. If I had not been born again, I would not know the promises contained in the word of God and His purposes in my life, how useful I can be when used by Him, nor would I know the Lion of Judah Ministry, through this system. God bless you.
What a beautiful testimony, Efigenia Vidal. Your experience of being born again has allowed you to understand God's demands in your life and equip yourself with the spiritual weapons that He provides us. As Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas mentions in his devotional, the new life in Christ leads us to a fullness that we can only find in Him. Your connection with God in the early morning is an example of a constant search for His presence, and your prayer in the midst of afflictions demonstrates your faith in His help. Always remember the promises contained in the Word of God, such as the verse mentioned by the author, "Will You not revive us again, that Your people may rejoice in You? (Psalm 85:6)" and the newness of life that we find in Christ, "Therefore, we have been buried with Him through baptism into death... so we too may walk in newness of life. (Romans 6:4)". May the fullness of Christ continue to bless your life and strengthen your faith. God bless you!
Enrique Meneses Muñoz : Thankful to GOD for every moment of my life with Him. I adore you LORD.
What a beautiful testimony of gratitude, Enrique Meneses Muñoz. It is wonderful to be able to live every moment of our life with God and worship Him at all times. Your attitude of gratitude reflects a deep connection with the Lord. As Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas mentions in his devotional, a full life in Christ leads us to experience the love of God in a profound and transforming way. Let us always remember that in Him we find fulfillment and joy. May the constant presence of God continue to illuminate your life and strengthen your faith. God bless you! "It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me." (Galatians 2:20)
Francisco Diaz S.: When we accept Christ in our hearts and are baptized we agree to walk the path of the Lord and decisively turn away from our old habits and customs that kept us in the darkness of sin. We must prevail in that feeling of love and surrender to the Lord so as not to relapse because the attractions of the world exert a lot of pressure on weak souls. Let us be true Christians.
What beautiful words, Francisco Díaz S. Your reflection on the meaning of accepting Christ in our hearts and being baptized is very profound. Just as Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas mentions in his devotional, the act of renouncing our old habits and customs to embrace the new life in Christ is a serious and transformative commitment. It is important to persevere in the path of the Lord, keeping our love and dedication to Him firm so as not to succumb to the pressures of the world that seek to take us away from His path. Let us always remember the words of the apostle John, "the love of God is fully manifested in the life of the one who obeys his word" (1 John 2:5). May the strength and love of Christ guide your steps and sustain you in your walk as a true Christian. Blessings on your journey of faith!
Ruth Vives.: God allows us and blesses us with his power through sincere repentance and immersed in the waters of baptism we will be freed and blessed by the Holy Spirit. God bless you. Amen.
What a beautiful reflection, Ruth Vives. The act of sincere repentance and the symbol of water baptism that frees us and blesses us with the power of the Holy Spirit are certainly powerful. As Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas mentions in his devotional, the process of being reborn to a new life in Christ involves genuine repentance and a profession of faith that leads us to experience the fullness of God. Let us always remember the words of the apostle Paul, "Therefore, we have been buried with Him through baptism into death... so we too should walk in newness of life" (Romans 6:4). May the presence and power of God continue to bless you on your journey of faith. God bless you abundantly! "God allows us and blesses us with His power through sincere repentance and immersed in the waters of baptism we will be freed and blessed by the Holy Spirit." Amen.
Betty Casanova: Baptism in conversion in Christ leads us by Grace to leave the old life behind and take a new life full of changes to obtain Salvation, if we are careless we lose the gift of God through his beloved son at no cost, just by saying I repent of everything and I receive you Jesus in my heart and I recognize you as the son of GOD and my Savior. I thank you Father for rescuing me from death and giving me life in freedom full of plenitude and your love and being that daughter who seeks you in secret and intimacy, that you fill my life with joy and strengthen me in difficult moments, that I learn every day to change sadness into joy seeking your presence.
What a beautiful reflection, Betty Casanova. Your description of baptism as part of conversion in Christ and the abandonment of the past life to embrace a new life full of changes in search of salvation is inspiring. It is true that God's grace allows us to leave behind our old way of living and receive an undeserved gift through Jesus Christ. As Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas mentions in his devotional, repentance and profession of faith are fundamental to experiencing the fullness and love of God in our lives. Your gratitude to God for rescuing you and giving you life in freedom demonstrates a deep connection with Him in the intimacy of your heart. May the constant presence of God continue to fill your life with joy and strengthen you in every difficult situation. Always remember to seek His presence at all times. May God continue to guide you on your journey of faith. Blessings on your path!
Silvia: Going to the waters is the beginning of my new life and every day I have to present myself before the Lord, so that He can help me to move forward with His strength, not my own. For me it is a unique experience. We really need Christ in our lives.
What a beautiful testimony, Silvia. Your description of how the act of going to the waters of baptism symbolizes the beginning of a new life in Christ is moving. As Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas mentions in his devotional, each day is an opportunity to present ourselves before the Lord and depend on His strength to move forward in our spiritual journey. It is inspiring to see how you recognize the urgent need to have Christ in your life, and how that dependence on His strength is fundamental in your day to day life. May this unique experience that you have had in baptism continue to remind you of the importance of walking in the strength and love of Christ. May His presence be your constant guide in every step you take. God bless you and strengthen you in your faith! "Going to the waters is the beginning of my new life and every day I have to present myself before the Lord, so that He helps me to move forward with His strength, not mine." A unique experience in the presence of the Lord!
