Romans 6:13 (NKJV) 13 ..., but present yourselves to God as being alive from the dead, ...
Jesus was more alive than any other person, every soul He encountered was both troubled about their sin and excited to be in His presence. He lived as the image of God, clothed in righteouness, while walking in God's Presence, He came to set sinful man right with God again. How do we embrace this, I am so glad you asked.
The writer to the church in Rome says, we are to come before God as those who are alive, no longer living as dead people. Look around you in church today, where is the excitement about Jesus, what are people really living for? We must cast of those dead alliances and embrace the new life in Jesus Christ, He alone lifts us out of the extraordinary decay in living and puts in us a New Life. God never intended for man to be bogged down in sin, we choose that for ourselves. The Lord Jesus Christ wants you present with Him, living in and through you, so that others see His Glory. When you trust your life to Jesus Christ, He will make you a living example of His mercy, how are you representing Him today? Let's present ourselves today before The Son, as those who are "alive from the dead," so others will be drawn to Him!
Heavenly Father here I am for You to use as You see fit, let the Joy of Jesus live in me, may others see my determination to live for You. Amen
