Bible Verse of The Day – 4-5-24

Galatians 3:27 (NKJV) 27 For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ.

Each day we rise from our sleep and begin to prepare for the day ahead.

For many, part of that preparation is deciding what to wear; what clothing we will put on.

In the verse above, Paul wrote that if we have been baptized into Christ we put on Christ.

And just as we choose our clothing each day, we must choose whether we will wear Christ or not.

We must choose whether we will live and behave in a way that Glorifies Him and represents the kingdom of God, or if we will walk in the ways of the world.

You see, being a follower of Christ is a choice we make.

We make a choice to put our faith and trust in Him, and then we choose to walk with Him daily or not.

Some may frown at that notion saying, “if we have put our faith in Christ, then we are walking with Him (putting Him on) automatically each day”.

But the reality is that this is not always true.

The enemy is always knocking at our door, tempting us to “take Christ off” by emulating or following the path of the world.

No, if we make a poor choice and sin, which we are all guilty of from time to time, we have not necessarily taken Christ off.

But if those sins become habitual, and our faith falters, we are in danger of taking Him off and leaving Him behind.

And this is what Paul was warning the Galatian believers about.

So, it is pertinent that we make every effort to walk out our salvation daily, with fear and trembling, as Paul spoke to the Philippian believers about.

Philippians 2:12 (NKJV) 12 Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling;
