To walk in Jesus

Colossians 2:6 As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him.

1 John 3:24 Whoever keeps his commandments abides in God, and God in him. And by this we know that he abides in us, by the Spirit whom he has given us.

Paul is telling the Colossian church that it is not enough only to receive Christ as Lord. We must also walk in Him. That is to be led by Him, allowing Him to be our Shepherd. Letting Him be our Lord and Master. Jesus says that we cannot serve two masters. It is now the Spirit that is in control.

Romans 8:14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

Are you walking in Him? Are you being led by Him? Can you say as Paul; “I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.” Galatians 2:20

I have given my life to Jesus. That means I have given over the control to Him. Rev Gøran Andreassen
