Morning by Morning, July 23 - “One Spirit with Him”
Good morning, Lord Jesus. You are one with the Father, one with the Holy Spirit; and in the mystery of faith and mercy of Your grace, You also desire to be one with me and with every one of Your disciples of Christ and children of God (John 17:20-23). ...
“He who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him” (1 Corinthians 6:17).
Let my spirit be one with Your Spirit. Let Your thoughts be one with my mind, Your desires be one in my heart, Your words be one in my mouth. Make me one with You, Lord--Father, Son, and Holy Spirit of God.
“Can two walk together, unless they are agreed?” (Amos 3:3) Let my steps agree with Your steps. Let my walk align with Your walk. Let my ways surrender to Your ways. Let my will yield to Your will.
Where I’m in sin, convict me and lead me to repentance (1 John 1:9). Where I’m confused or deceived or misunderstanding, speak Your truth to me in Your love for me, for Your words “are spirit, and they are life” (John 6:63).
When I think less of myself than who I am or more of myself than I should, remind me of my true identity in You and Your true Identity in me. “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new” (2 Corinthians 5:17). “But to all who did receive Him, who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God” (John 1:12). “See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God. And that is what we are! Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when Christ appears, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is” (1 John 3:1-2).
In Your mercy and love, make me more like You today. For as You are, so am I to be in my world (1 John 4:17). In Your mercy and love, make me one with You today, one spirit with You today, as I join myself to You in surrender and faith, in humility and trust today--as best as I can and all by Your grace (1 Corinthians 6:17).
“The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with (us) all” (2 Corinthians 13:14). In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen. Be encouraged today. In the love of Jesus, Tommy Hays
