As we journey through life, we continue to grow and learn. However, some things remain constant and become more solid as they stand the test of time. One of these foundational principles is "abiding in Christ." By developing the following five habits, we can come to know Jesus more intimately and grow to be like Him. (See Ephesians 3:16-22, Romans 8:29-30)
- Know the Truth: It is important to gain a deep understanding of the truth of God's word.
- Believe the Truth: We must not only know the truth but also believe it and apply it to our lives.
- Talk or Confess the Truth: Our words have power, and it is important to confess the truth of God's word in our lives.
- Walk/Do the Truth: We must not only talk about the truth but also put it into action in our lives.
- Share the Truth (Group Victory): As we grow in the truth, we should also share it with others and work together towards victorious living.
By developing these five habits, we can be transformed from the inside out. Our minds, hearts, and actions will be aligned with Christ. We must also remember that our bodies are not to be despised or disregarded, but rather they should be our instruments for righteousness, holiness, and the glorification of God. Our bodies are the temple of God, and they should be used to testify for God and impact the world.
Instead of seeing things from one perspective or following the fads and trends of the world, we should strive to have a systematic understanding and navigate through the complexities of life. By developing a balanced life and incorporating these five habits, we can live victoriously.
