HAS YOUR LIFE BECOME MUNDANE, BORING AND ROUTINE?

SCRIPTURE:
“The Spirit gives life; the flesh counts for nothing.  
The words I have spoken to you are spirit and they are life.”  
(John 6:63)

MEDITATION:
According to God’s Word, if we want to “really live” here on earth, 
then we need to have His Spirit actively living within us.
If we depend on the flesh to provide us with life, we will be disappointed.
In order to receive His Spirit, Jesus tells us that we must be born again.
That was the message he gave to Nicodemus who was one of the most 
religious men when Jesus walked the earth in human form (see John 3:7).

Nicodemus could not use his religiosity 
to experience a spiritual rebirth, and neither can we.
There are many “religious” people who have not be reborn.
Spiritual rebirth is something we have to experience.

If we are golfers, we can read every book we can find about golf, but 
our game is not going to get better unless we get out on the course and play.
When we play, we can experience firsthand the ‘tips’ we have read about.
It is the same way with God’s Spirit – we need to experience it 
in our life in order to understand and appreciate this gift from the Lord.
We can study theology and religion, 
but there comes a time when we must experience Christ for ourselves.

When His Spirit lives in us, we will gladly relinquish our will to His Will.
We will welcome His guidance in all that we do.
More than likely He will take us out of our comfort zone, however 
rather than dreading it, we will anticipate it with a feeling of excitement.
Why? 
Because we know that we will have an opportunity to see the Lord in action!

ACTION:
Are you enjoying life or just struggling to make it through each day?
Do you find that in general, life has become boring and uneventful?
You do not have to stay in that mode 
because God has promised you His Spirit.

Pray,
“Heavenly Father, thank You for yet another promise! When Your 
Spirit lives within me, I know that my life will be changed and I will 
really start to live! I can only imagine where You will take me and 
how You will use me! If I have fooled myself into thinking that I am 
a believer when I have never truly been reborn, then make me aware 
of it so I can get everything in the right order and start a new, exciting 
journey that will only end when I see You face to face. You have 
promised life for me and I praise and worship You!”
