Seize the Moment – Day 230

God’s Design and Plan: Nature

2 Peter 1:3-4 (ESV)

 

“It is the one and only Spirit who distributes all these gifts. He alone decides which gift each person should have.” 

 His divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us to his own glory and excellence,  by which he has granted to us his precious and very great promises, so that through them you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in the world because of sinful desire.” 

 

As we conclude our acrostic of DESIGN, Monday was what DRIVES us; Tuesday was how God uses our EXPERIENCES to shape us. Wednesday, was what SPIRITUALLY STIRS us to best connect with God. Thursday, was how we IMPACT those around us. Friday was with what are we GIFTED. We finish out with what is your NATURE.

 

Let’s be completely honest. If we would live by our nature, we may be a good person because of how we were raised, but could we be without sin?
 
When God created Adam and Eve, they were without sin, for they were created in His image. But when sin entered into their lives, their nature was corrupted, quickly learning how to shift blame for their wrongdoings to someone else.
 
The only one to live a sinless life was Jesus, and He gave his life as a payment for our sins…past, present and future. But if we are truly in a relationship with Him, our nature will be transformed to be more and more like His, divine and from God.

 

Wake up from your spiritual slumber and seek after the Master Creator and Designer who wants only the very best for you! Live your life each and every day being led by the Holy Spirit, and not the sinful nature of man.
