Strengthen What Remains (Rev. 3:2)


SPIRITUAL DIARY FOR

03/10/2005

 

My Worship Time                  Focus:  Strengthen what remains

 

Bible Reading & Meditation             Reference:  Revelation 3:2

 

            Message of the verse:  Wake up, and strengthen the things that remain, which were about to die; for I have not found your deeds completed in the sight of My God.  (NAS95)  Now wake up! Strengthen what little remains, for even what is left is at the point of death. Your deeds are far from right in the sight of God.  (NLT)

            There were some things that were acceptable in the sight of the Lord Jesus Christ that this church was doing, yet there were many things that were not acceptable and the Lord Jesus Christ tells them that were to strengthen the things that were.  Jesus goes on in the next verse to name some of the things that He is talking about in verse two that they are to strengthen. 

           

            Spiritual meaning for my life today:  I am reminded of the verses at the end of Psalm 139 where David asks the Spirit to search him to see where he had sinned and not remembered it so that he could confess it and have again fellowship with the Lord.  Sometimes I too, don’t remember all of the things that I do not do correctly and need the Spirit of God to search me.

 

The Word of God has been a challenge to me as I read it this morning.

 

My Steps of Faith Today:  Ask the Lord to search my heart and to cleanse me from sin so that I may have wonderful fellowship with Him.
