Lebo toto je vôľa Božia, aj tvoje posvätenie, that ye should abstain from fornication: That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour; Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God (1 Tesaloničanom 4:3-5)
Sanctification is the will of God
Sanctification is part of the daily walk of every born again Christian. You have been sanctified and have been made righteous and holy, by the Lord Jesus Christ, Jeho krvou. Ale teraz, it is up to you to walk in righteousness and holiness. It’s time for the process of sanctification and to cleanse yourself from every sin and dead work of the flesh.
Sanctification is vôľa Božia. Preto, if you want to serve God, then sanctification is part of your new life, ako Boží syn (both male and female).
When you study His Word, you will find out the truth. When you renew your mind with the truth of God and apply His Word; His Truth in your life, you will sanctify yourself with the Word and you shall walk after His will.
Detoxing
Maybe you’ve heard of the word ‘detoxing’. Detoxing is very common and on trend these days. It is meant to cleanse your body from toxic substances (detoxing), which are build up inside of you. As a born again believer, you should also detox your life from the world.
When you surrender your life to Jesus Christ, a znovu sa narodiť v duchu, your mind; your way of thinking, is still the same as the world.
Your worldly thinking, walk, múdrosť, a vedomosti, which you have built up over the years, will conflict with the will of God.
Teraz, its up to you to show how much you really love Jesus.
When you love Him, then you know what to do: it’s time to say goodbye to your starý život. It’s time, to remove all the toxic habits and all the build up toxic in your mind, which leads to bondage and death. It’s time to obnov svoju myseľ with His Word and begin to walk in His Word.
Vy, ako znovuzrodený kresťan, should abstain from fornication. You should know how to possess your vessel in sanctification and honour, and not in the lust of concupiscence, like the gentiles, who do not know God. How do you do this?
Obnovte svoju myseľ Božím Slovom
The first thing to do, je do obnov svoju myseľ, so Slovom Božím. Because without the Word of God, you are not able to find out His will.
Meditate on His words, make His words your own. Stay habitually in His Word, so that your thinking will line up with His thinking.
Iba potom, will you be able to work together with the Spirit.
Don’t obey your flesh! Don’t give into your will, Vaše myšlienky, Vaše pocity, your emotions, tvoje túžby, vaše túžby, your cravings etc., ale namiesto toho, do what the Word tells you to do.
Stand up against these carnal feelings of lust and desires. Dare to master over them, by taking the Word of God, and speak the Word.
The junkfood of the world
As long as your thinking is filled with the junkfood of the world, and you keep filling your mind with the junkfood of the world, then your thinking will never line up with the Word. Your way of thinking will never be the same, as the way God thinks. You shall always think like the world, and walk like the world.
You will never walk as the new creation in Jesus Christ. But you will always stay a carnal Christian, who walks after the flesh. And you shall always say, that His thoughts are far above your thoughts.
You shall always see yourselves as a sinner and because of this wrong mindset, you shall keep walking in sin and iniquity (and make it right by using the grace of God, as an excuse to sin).
Walking in holiness, and sanctification, means to walk in vôľa Božia. But as long, as you keep on doing your will, instead of doing His will, you shall never be able to walk in holiness and righteousness.
One Spirit with Him
When you stop feeding your flesh (your mind) with the junkfood of the world, and begin to feed your spirit with the Word of God, then your thinking shall be obnovená, and shall line up with the Word. You shall think His thoughts, and become one in Him.
The only thing, that stops His Spirit from working, is your worldly way of thinking. But when you begin to think like the Word, you shall say: “His ways are my ways, and His thoughts have become my thoughts”.
Of course He is God, but we are His children, and He has given us the heritage; to become His sons and daughters, and to have the ability to walk as His sons and daughters na tejto zemi. Just like Jesus walked on this earth.
Jediná cesta, to get to know what this new life, as a son or daughter, contains, is to study the Word of God.
Believe His words and become a doer of the Word (together with the Holy Spirit).
By the Obnova vašej mysle so slovom, and by becoming a doer of the Word, you shall walk in faith. Pokiaľ zostanete v Slove, you shall walk after the Spirit and walk in holiness and righteousness. You shall be led by the Word, instead of the world and being led by your passionate carnal desires and lusts. If stay in Him, you shall live a sanctified life in Christ.
