Today’s Inspiration: Jesus taught, “Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again.” John 3:3. Are we a born again believer of Jesus Christ? What does being born again means in the kingdom of God? Being born again is not speaking in tongues or a status we normally called a Christian. Apostle John taught,” Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God.” I John 3:9. Being born again is to have the fear of the Lord, which is the beginning of a new kingdom way of living that is free from sin and iniquities, that brings forth godly wisdom, knowledge and understanding. Holiness is the greatest freedom.
Being born again is becoming more like Christ. John continued in chapter 5 saying,” Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and everyone who loves Him who begot also loves him who is begotten of Him. By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and keep His commandments. For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome. For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith.” I John 5:1-4. To enter the kingdom of heaven is not about how anointed or gifted you are but how much character of Christ you have become in bearing much fruit in the Spirit. Faith and Love is what the Lord is looking for.
Prayer: O Lord my God, Let thy love compels me daily with the revelation of your Cross and the redemptive power of your Blood that I shall keep bearing fruit in repentance and to grow in the image of Christ. For I shall delight in your laws and you shall fulfil the desires of my heart where your living waters shall flow eternally, in Jesus' Name, Amen.
