DR CHARLES STANLEY IN TOUCH DAILY DEVOTIONAL 30 SEPTEMBER 2021
TOPIC: GOD IS AT WORK IN YOU
Scripture: Philippians 2:12-13
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;
13 for it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure.
In Touch Devotional 30 September 2021 Dr Charles Stanley | Message
There are many books promising a successful Christian life, but no humanly inspired technique can ever achieve the work of God. Any commitment or rededication that is based on our own effort will not last; true transformation comes from the Holy Spirit alone. That’s why the Lord wants our humble dependence on Him for strength, growth, and perseverance.
Today’s passage reminds us of these basic truths about the Christian life:
• We participate in the working out of our salvation. This isn’t referring to our initial conversion through faith in Christ; rather, it’s the process of sanctification by which we grow into Christlikeness. An obedient, holy lifestyle is something we must choose and pursue.
• We need an attitude of fear and trembling. There should be no flippancy about how we live, because God is holy and we must one day give Him an account of our life.
• God works in us. Jesus said we can do nothing apart from Him (John 15:5). He’s the one who equips and enables us to live in the way He desires.
God has not left us to do the best we can on our own. He is always at work in believers, to fulfill His desired goals for each of us.
Bible in One Year: Zechariah 6-10
