Jesus. Jesus and you!

He Must Increase

"He must increase, but I must decrease," John 3:30. This is the key to improved christian living and to constant spiritual growth. When you accept Jesus into your life as Lord and Saviour, you begin the process of handing your life over to Him. The more that you hand over to Him the more that you grow and strengthen spiritually and the more effective you become as a christian.

Mostly people are programmed to being individuals, and into believing that they do things their way. We all like to believe that we have total freedom to do what we wish, when we wish. This is only partly true. We are all slaves in some form or the other, serving one of two masters, Jesus or Satan. There is no in between or grey area. Either you have chosen to give your life over to Jesus, or you serve satan.

Satan is the king of deception, and will have you believe that you are "free" to do what you wish. However, you are nothing more than a puppet on a string, bowing down to his wishes, and serving his purposes.

When you do truely break free from the ropes that bind you, and you invite Jesus into your life, you begin to know and understand true freedom. However you still serve a Master and the Master, Jesus, wants to take control of your life. He places His Holy Spirit  within you to lead you and guide you into His way. The more that you begin to listen to and obey the Holy spirit within you, the more you strengthen and grow spiritually.

As a servant of Jesus, He fills you with love and joy and peace, and His wish for you is that you would prosper and be blessed. He does not want any of His servants to suffer, and He has a great reward for you in the form of eternal life in heaven. Accept the navigation of the Holy Spirit in your journey towards eternity in heaven, so that the road may be good, and smooth. It is when you disobey the Holy Spirit's direction that you end up on the wrong road.

Allow the power of the Holy Spirit to increase within you. Feed the Holy Spirit through constant prayer and by reading the bible. Allow the Jesus inside of you to grow strong. Spread the love that Jesus has placed in your heart towards others and reach out to them. Allow the Jesus inside of you to increase, and the old man inside of you to decrease, that you may grow strong in Christ.
