Stained glass at St John the Baptist’s Anglican Church http://www.stjohnsashfield.org.au, Ashfield, New South Wales. Illustrates Jesus’ description of himself “I am the Good Shepherd” (from the Gospel of John, chapter 10, verse 11). This version of the image shows the detail of his face. The memorial window is also captioned: “To the Glory of God and in Loving Memory of William Wright. Died 6th November, 1932. Aged 70 Yrs.” (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

And whatever ye do in word or deed,
do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by
Him. (Colossians 3:17).

The Lord
Jesus was born to be man’s legal representative to God, so He could bear the
penalty for sin on his behalf. He took upon Him the form of a servant and was
made in the likeness of men (Philippians 2:7). All that He did in the cause of
His earthly ministry was in man’s stead – as our substitute. Jesus knew His
mission as man’s representative and took every turn to emphasize it. He referred
to Himself as the “Son of Man”. He wanted everyone to know He was man’s representative.

When Jesus
died on the cross, we died on the cross with Him; and when He was buried we
were buried with Him; because He represented us; He died in our place, in our
name. so when God raised Him up in triumph over satan and sin, in the mind of
justice, we were raised up together with Him: “But God, who is rich in mercy, for His great love wherewith He loved
us, even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by
grace ye are saved;) And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together
in heavenly places in Christ Jesus” (Ephesians 2:4-6).

As one who’s
born again, you’ve been called into the victory – life, where you reign and
rule over life’s circumstances through Christ. The life, glory and name of
Jesus now belong to you; therefore you’re to live in, and do all things in the
Name of Jesus as read in our opening verse. To live in the Name of Jesus Christ
is to live in victory over life’s challenges.

No demon,
sickness or disease can destroy or hinder anyone who has come to apprehend the
victory wrought for us through the death, burial and resurrection of our Lord
Jesus Christ. I urge you, therefore, to dare believe the Word, and face your
endeavours today with the mindset of a champion, knowing that you have the
victory in the Name of Jesus Christ!

PRAYER

DEAR FATHER, I THANK
YOU FOR GIVING ME THE POWER OF ATTORNEY TO USE AND LIVE IN THE NAME OF JESUS
CHRIST. I GO FORTH TODAY WITH JOY, KNOWING THAT I’VE GOT VICTORY IN THE NAME OF
THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, AMEN!

Do you know
that you are the light in your world?
The Lord Jesus Christ wasn’t kidding when He said, “Ye are the light of
the world…..” (Matthew 5:14); He meant every word He said.

What is
light? Light is that which makes manifest; it gives direction and shows the
way. Also light brings fulfilment and joy. This is why He gave you the
responsibility of teaching the people of the world the way to live (Matthew
28:19). What a calling, what an honour, what a commission!

Jesus
announced to the people that He is the Light of the world (John 8:12). You are
the light of the world today, in the same sense as Jesus was the light of the
world in His day. If you are a student, you are the light of your school. If
you are a businessman, you are the light of your industry. If you are a
policeman, you are the light of the service. If you are a soldier, you are the
light of the army.

Jesus has
made you the light of the world! When you understand this truth, it’ll put
springs in your steps. There can be no darkness in your life anymore for you
are the light of the world. Sickness, poverty, discouragement and death are no
longer part of your life. There’s something special about you. You’re unique
and different; you’re a shining light. Begin to walk in this reality today.

CONFESSION

I’VE FOUND MY PLACE.
I’VE DISCOVERED WHO I AM – THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD. I AM SHINING FOR JESUS
CHRIST TODAY! I WILL NEVER WALK IN DARKNESS. I WILL NEVER WALK IN CONFUSION OR
DEFEAT BUT IN VICTORY, IN JESUS CHRIST NAME, AMEN!

Communication Deepens Our Fellowship With God

Every relationship without communication suffers; be it relationship with your children, your spouse, your co-workers, or with God. Communication – good and frequent communication – helps or enhances relationships. If you have a relationship with someone you don’t talk with, that relationship will suffer setbacks. No matter how proximate you may be to the person, without continually exchanging thoughts by talking to each other, your relationship won’t grow.

This is the reason we’re to constantly fellowship with the Lord through prayer. 2 Corinthians 13:14 says “The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all.” This is an indication of the kind of relationship we’re to cultivate with the Holy Spirit; a communion; a sharing together. The Father and the Son are in heaven, but the Holy Spirit is here with us. Hence, He’s the God we know and relate with in the earth today, and He lives in us, fostering this extraordinary communion with divinity.

There’s no other way to develop an intimate relationship with the Holy Spirit, aside from communing with Him constantly in prayer, and through meditation on the Word. Consciously create time to talk to and with the Lord the same way you’ll perhaps schedule to talk to a friend, colleague or loved one.

Remember, the Holy Spirit is a person with emotions, will and intellect; therefore relate to Him as such. The highest means of communication with Him is by speaking in tongues; and as you do, He’ll make the presence of God real to you and the miraculous your constant experience.

PRAYER

Dear Holy Spirit, thank You for Your abiding presence that brings glory and beauty to my life. I’m constantly energized from within because You strengthen me with might in my inner man, even as I fellowship with You today. Thank You for Your glorious ministry in my life, in Jesus Christ’s Name, Amen!
