Размышление над стихом дня
Когда мы стали христианами, мы умерли для нашего старого греховного человека и стали новым человеком во Христе. В то время как у нас продолжается борьба с нашими искушениями, мы сейчас имеем силу воскресения и Духа Святого, который производит работу в нас, чтобы помочь нам.
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!
Моя молитва
Праведный Отец Небесный, помоги мне умерщвлять и отбрасывать свою греховную природу из моего сердца и мой жизни. Пускай моя жизнь будет святым приношением, которое угодно Тебе. Во имя Иисуса Христа, моего Спасителя молюсь. Аминь.
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.
