March 14, 2013 - Romans 7




Dear  Saints,

Today we prayerfully continue our Feast in Romans 7.  Saints we are united to Christ Jesus, to go forth gathering good fruit unto God.  The law is excellent in its functioning as it tells us how to live.  There is no salvation in God’s law because it is used to shed light on our sinful nature in the flesh. The spiritual battle rages between our  corrupt flesh and God’s grace while we live in the flesh. “24 Wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death? 25 Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I myself serve the law of God with my mind, but with my flesh I serve the law of sin.” Romans 8:24-25, English Standard Version (ESV).  We must have faith in Jesus to overcome this battle between our spirit and flesh. “For this very reason, make every effort to supplement your faith with virtue, and virtue with knowledge, and knowledge with self-control, and self-control with steadfastness, and steadfastness with godliness, and godliness with brotherly affection, and brotherly affection with love. For if these qualities are yours and are increasing, they keep you from being ineffective or unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.” 2 Peter 1:5-8 ESV.  We have the need to nurture our faith in Jesus?  Is this possible can we grow our faith in Jesus?  The answer is a resounding yes (see Romans 10:17)!  In order to be effective and fruitful we must feast in the Word God gave us regularly.  God gave us the Word that we may have life abundantly.  A sin free life is an abundant life. Give God all the glory for our righteousness is in Jesus and not of ourselves. 

If Jesus is calling you right now see the following quote from; The Feast, “The down side? – Romans 5” use it as  a guide to ask Jesus to free you from a sinful life;

from your heart to Jesus; "Heavenly Father, have mercy on me, a sinner. I believe in you and that your word is true. I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of the living God and that he died on the cross so that I may now have forgiveness for my sins and eternal life. I know that without you in my heart my life is meaningless.
I believe in my heart that you, Lord God, raised Him from the dead. Please Jesus forgive me, for every sin I have ever committed or done in my heart, please Lord Jesus forgive me and come into my heart as my personal Lord and Savior today. I need you to be my Father and my friend.
 …”

 If you don’t know where to turn or what to do next, please send Pastor Glen Aycock an email right now!  His email address is; pastorglenaycock@gmail.com.  He will feel blessed to point you to a bible believing church.
