Today the Lord was impressing on me the importance of His being the Head of the Body of Christ.  In chapter 4 of Ephesians, Paul was mentioning that being a servant of Christ entails being one with each other. What makes us one, you may ask, it is His Spirit. He is peace, and He has broken down every wall…amen (Ephesians 2:14)!

Christ’s Spirit brings us peace and reconciliation with God. He is our salvation! It is up to us to follow His way. It was great hearing the study this morning, in Genesis 43, mentioning the fact that though we are guilty and human it is fitting to admit this. When we do, and look to Christ, we will experience forgiveness and freedom.

Today I wanted to pick my blog up and discuss confidence.  Many days I have had the feeling of being inadequate.  The Lord has been working on me for many years in this area.  Today on my calendar it focused on 1 John 5:14.

This verse in 1 John speaks about coming to our Heavenly Father.  We can rest assured that as long as we ask His will on a certain situation, then we can be confident it will come about.  Christ’s faithfulness to His promises and nature will never fail.

My prayer is that I will come to a place where the world will see the fruit of the Holy Spirit in me.  I was reading a scripture in Jeremiah where it mentioned the righteous having a spirit of peace, confidence in Christ.  That is awesome!  Let us all go forth in confidence as we face our various battlegrounds!
