"I bear branded on my body the marks of the Lord Jesus" Gal 6:14


Friday

WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE BRANDED FOR JESUS?

The Bible teaches that the characters of a Christian is marked by the fruits of his spirit - “love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control” (Galatians 5:22-23). These fruits have an effect on all aspects of our lives. It is this lifestyle that distinguishes Christians from the rest of the world, where adultery, fornication, idolatry, hatred, contentions, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, envy, murders, drunkenness, the like rules (Galatians 5:19-21).

We as Christians choose to be Branded by Jesus – we need this brand, so that the world can long for the Jesus life style and ask us to teach them our ways. The Jesus Brand units Christians and if God’s people from every walk of life band and “brand” together to fight the battle and claim our city, the strongholds of the enemy will be broken, the sick will be made whole, and the power of God will manifest.
