WE BELONG TO JESUS

What would be different about your day to day if you always kept at the forefront of your thinking the simple fact that you belong to Jesus? Christian, you are His valuable possession! Jesus bought you with a price, His Spirit lives in you, AND He would leave ninety-nine others just to go after you!

Why allow others or your current circumstances to define who and whose you are? As a true disciple, you are adopted into God's family as a co-heir with Jesus. Your identity is IN Jesus. Imagine how your day might differ if you dwelled on these things.

The Apostle Paul tells us we are chosen and marked by God's Holy Spirit. He says God's Holy Spirit is the down payment on our inheritance as God's adopted children. We belong to Jesus because He bought and paid for us through His sacrifice on the Cross. When we can occupy our minds with those delightful things, why dwell on what is only temporary?

Can I just tell ya something? If we will place our focus on God and the things of God, we will come closer to walking in the Spirit and living the life abundant Christ had in mind for us as His followers.

What we need in this life is quite evident: more Jesus and less of ourselves. #MásDeTi

I give them eternal life, and they will never perish. No one will snatch them out of my hand.
John 10:28
