Dear God-tracker

GOD-TRACKING IS FAITHFULLY LIVING BY THE SPIRIT AND NOT THE FLESH

Jesus is the blueprint of God for your life. The Bible says that we have all sinned and corrupted his perfect righteous image in which we were originally created. Even though God sent us the Law of Moses, it was rendered powerless in that it was weakened by our sinful nature. Therefore, he sent Jesus, the Son of God, to reconcile us back to himself. Because Jesus is God in the flesh he is and was perfectly sinless. Even so, God's plan was to allow Jesus to take the curse of sin when he died for us on the cross. You see, God imputed Jesus with your sin at Calvary so that you could be imputed with his righteousness upon by repentance and by faith. Only in Christ can you become the righteousness of God. Jesus in you is God's original plan for your life.

Many people think that they need to work really hard to earn God's favour but this is impossible. God is so holy and so righteous that we would need to become exactly as he is in order to earn his favour. But Jesus is already exactly how God is, because Jesus is the image of the invisible God. Therefore, to be holy as God is holy, you and I need to intentionally repent of sin and then live by faith. The moment you truly admit to your failings you die to the old nature of sin. Then the moment you truly exercise faith you put confidence in Christ and then live by his righteousness.

Jesus told us to seek first God's kingdom and his righteousness. When you asked Jesus into your life God's righteousness was put into your spirit-man, i.e. you were imputed with his righteousness. Therefore, when you seek God's righteousness you are actually seeking to live by the newly created spirit-man within you and not the flesh-man on the outside. God does have a great and perfect blueprint for your life but you will only discover his plans by living by the Spirit, in faith.

God-tracking is faithfully living by the spirit and not the flesh

Every blessing

Quote of the Week
Sample of Dudley's Fave Quotes

"We are not called to live by human reason. All that matters is obedience to God's word and his leading in our lives. If God says go, we'll go. If he says stay we'll stay. When we are in his will, we are in the safest place in the world." --- Brother Yun


Don't Give Up, Look Up!
Look up and Fix Your Eyes on Jesus!

I claim your plans for my life as I choose to live by your blueprint and not by my own selfish ambitions

"Dear God, thank you so much that Jesus took my sin upon himself at Calvary so that I can be forgiven and cleansed. Thank you that you have given me new life, in Christ, and renewed a right spirit within me. I praise you that it is no longer I who live but Christ who lives in me, therefore, the life I live in the flesh I live by faith in your righteousness. Jesus is the blueprint of your goodness and right living by which I stand. So, I claim your plans for my life as I choose to live by your blueprint and not by my own selfish ambitions. For you glory. Amen."
