"For whom He did foreknow, He also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the Firstborn among many brethren. Moreover whom He did predestinate, them He also called, them He also justified: and whom He justified, them also glorified. What shall we say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?" Romans 8:29-31
It is God’s will that we are one with Him and that through the power of His Anointing we be conformed into the image of Jesus. God wants us to walk like Jesus, talk like Jesus, think like Jesus, act like Jesus, have the glory of Jesus, be delivered from the evils of this world like Jesus, and to do the works of Jesus! To insure that He can do all of these things through us, God has called us, He has united us with Himself, He has justified us, He has glorified us, and what can we say to all of this? Can we brag about our own efforts? Can we glory in our own abilities? No, all we can say is, “God is for us,” and praise His Holy Name, because we are now one with Him, we can be just like Jesus!
Ask yourself this, what if we are not there yet, what if we aren’t as mature as we can be? Does that bring condemnation on us? No, there is now therefore no condemnation to us who are in Christ Jesus, Romans 8:1. So if we aren’t as mature as we can be, what should we do? Well the first thing to know is this, the Holy Spirit teaches us all things and Jesus leads us in the paths of God’s righteousness. We are not alone here, we are never alone, God is our Father, and He abides within us. God shall never leave us or forsake us! God is our Father and He knows better than anyone what He needs to do to fulfill His calling within us! Faith in who we are in Christ comes from hearing the Word of God! We are one with God and our Head knows what each part of His body needs to become as it should be! Our Father is in control and He will never leave us or forsake us, and His love cast out all fear and all of the torment that comes with it!
