Pensamientos sobre el Verso de Hoy
Cuando nos hacemos cristianos, morimos al hombre viejo del pecado y resucitamos como persona nueva. Aunque tengamos muchas de las mismas batallas con la tentación, también tenemos el poder de la resurrección y el Espíritu Santo trabajando dentro nuestro para ayudarnos.
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
When we became Christians, we died to the old person of sin and were raised up a new person. In baptism, we shared with Jesus in his death, burial, and resurrection (Romans 6:3-14) so that we can share in his victory over sin, death, Satan, and hell. Our lives are now securely joined to Jesus and his future glory (Colossians 2:12-15, 3:1-4). While we have battles with temptation and face trials in this world, we also now have the power of the resurrection and the Holy Spirit at work within us to help us overcome them (John 16:33) — to keep the old, dead, and sinful person buried as the new person awaits the arrival of our Lord and King, Jesus!
Mi oración
Padre Santo, que mi pecado pasado muera para mí, lejos de mi vida y mi corazón. Que mi vida sea un sacrificio santo que te agrade. En el nombre de mi Salvador, Jesús, oro, Amen.
My Prayer...
Righteous Father, help me keep the dead and cast-away sin of my past far away from my heart and out of my life. May my life be a holy sacrifice that is pleasing to you. I ask for the Holy Spirit to fill me with confident hope, knowing that in Jesus, I can overcome the trials and temptations of this world. In the name of my Savior, Jesus, I pray. Amen.
