Podcast 57.3 Transcript
Welcome to Thursday Thoughts at Resonant 7, where we reflect on the reality of God and resolve to let it resound in our lives, repeatedly. Let’s think about this.
No more we doubt Thee glorious Prince of life
Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live, and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe this?” John 11:25-26 ESV
We declare our faith in Jesus, even while we acknowledge there was a time when we doubted. Jesus asked us disciples plainly and He asks you today, do you believe? Answer Him in your own words.
Life is nought without Thee aid us in our strife
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. 2 Corinthians 1:3-4 ESV
He provides comfort to us so we can provide comfort for others. What does that comfort avail us if we do not have life? So He starts by giving us life, then gives comfort.
Make us more than conquerors Through Thy deathless love
No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. Romans 8:37 ESV
We endure many trials in life but can any of them separate us from the undying, unending love of God that is in Christ Jesus? The Scripture answers that question plainly. No. Jesus makes us more than conquerors.
Lead us in Thy triumph To Thy home above
And raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, Ephesians 2:6 ESV
Giving us everything we need to overcome our most difficult days is not all that Jesus has accomplished. He has not only raised us up to life, but also an eternal inheritance in heaven with Him. He has seated us, past tense, with Him. We wait for what already is.
Take a few moments to talk to Jesus about what has come to your mind, or listen to what He is saying to you, then I will read our text once more.
No more we doubt Thee glorious Prince of life
Life is nought without Thee aid us in our strife
Make us more than conquerors Through Thy deathless love
Lead us in Thy triumph To Thy home above
Take the mindfulness of God’s presence cultivated in these last few minutes into the next ones and beyond. Until next time, Be Resonant.
