Misapplied Learning November 20, 2010 Our Daily Bread is hosted by Les Lamborn READ: Romans 6:1-14 Reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord. —Romans 6:11 After a 4-year-old got into trouble at preschool, his mom asked him what he had done wrong. He explained, "I was angry with a playmate. But you told me that I should not hit anyone, so I asked my friend to do it for me!" Where does someone so young learn that? The Bible tells us he did not have to be taught—he was born with it! It is part of the fallen nature that all of us have at birth. But the Christian does not have to respond according to his fallen nature. Paul reminds us that "our old man was crucified with [Christ], . . . that we should no longer be slaves of sin" (Rom. 6:6). We are "a new creation" (2 Cor. 5:17) and have been set free and have become "slaves of God" (Rom. 6:22). Yet, as Christians we do still struggle with our flesh and its sinful desires (Rom. 7:18-19). But now that "we are alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord," we can respond in a God-honoring way (Rom. 6:11). Instead of being like the young boy who tried to get revenge, we can obey the instructions of Romans 6:13, "Do not present your members as instruments of unrighteousness to sin, but present yourselves to God . . . as instruments of righteousness." —C. P. Hia O help us, Lord, to heed Your Word, Its precepts to obey; And give us strength to quench the urge To do things our own way. —Sper We gain the victory when we give up sin's pleasure in exchange for Christ's power.

(CS4U) November 20 - The Sleeper

The Sleeper November 20, 2010   "Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light." (Ephesians 5:14)   The message in our text provides an attention-getting warning to those who claim to be Christians but indulge in or even allow the evil practices of Ephesians 5:3-7. A Christian does not, and indeed cannot, live a life of fornication, or uncleanness, or covetousness, or filthiness, or foolish talking, or jesting (vv. 3-4), for no such person "hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God . . . for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience" (vv. 5-6). Those who practice such things are "fools" (v. 15).   While we as Christians must always be willing to bring the saving message of God's grace to the sinner, we must not be "partakers with them" (v. 7) in their sins and indeed must "have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness" (v. 11). Instead, we must "reprove them" (v. 11), pointing out the consequences of their actions and focusing their attention on Christ, who "hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour" (v. 2) in payment of their penalty. All that must be done is to accept this forgiveness. In doing so, we who are "light in the Lord" (v. 8) will shed light in their darkness, for "all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light" (v. 13).   As children of the light (v. 8), our lives must exhibit the "fruit of the Spirit . . . goodness and righteousness and truth" (v. 9). We must prove "what is acceptable unto the Lord" (v. 10), "walk circumspectly, . . . wise" (v. 15), "redeeming the time, because the days are evil" (v. 16). The sleeper in our text, whether he be an unbeliever or a professing Christian, is "asleep"--locked in moral insensibility. "Awake, Sleeper!" Paul would say, "and accept the Godgiven remedy for your plight!"

(CS4U) Re: Thought for the Day

We have to ask ourselves this.. would we walk right by our father
here on earth without saying a word to him? Why is God so different..
He loves us so much, and will talk to us,if we listen intently,so why
not talk to Him,when things are going good..Most of us tend to forget
tht He is there ALL the time, and not just when things go wrong.. He
wants to hear us thank Him for just being there.. I love when I can
feel His presence around me,.. Especially when I dont ask for it and
not expecting it, And that is all the time for Him.
